Challenges facing mainstream schools with autistic students

Mainstream schools should be reasonably adjusted to meet the unique needs of autistic

children to enable them to explore their whole school life: this is because autistic children

usually have a particular field of specialization or a talent that they excel on without difficulties.

Theory of inclusion is a theory which was developed recently where autistic children are

included in the ordinary classes, to have better accomplishments, better self-notions, and social

abilities than those obtained in a class full of children with special needs (Stepanova et al., 2017).

Sometimes to reach up an autistic student's problem becomes a real problem because they aren't

that open in regular conversations due to poor social and communication skills. Some schools

have come up with policies where students write all their things in diaries and then submit them

to teachers and counselors weekly. This has worked pretty well in solving students' problems and

identifying their strongholds and shortfalls.

Research has shown that autistic children are higher impressionable to hectoring at

school. Additionally, children with autism are more feasible to be banished from schools more

than other children with special needs: because they tend to fight off stereotypes or those who

mistreat them regularly. Nearly all students have been reported to be bullied at different

frequencies or severities, and these autistic children are not exceptional only that it turns out

more frequently than anticipated, from pretty name calling to physical violence, which can lead

to an unfortunate case of social exclusion (Pierce et al., 2016). This leads to a serious problem

where an autistic child negatively impacts on the schooling setting of another child, such as

irritating behaviors like constant talking which interrupts the learning environment which creates

avoidable tension to teachers thus the inclusion technique probably faces a higher risk o failing.
 There are various challenges that autistic children face in the classroom: each child with

unique behaviors and needs asking for different attention from the other. First, some have delays

in processing verbal or written language in a neurological basis (Lever & Geurts, 2016). In

regular classrooms where questions are asked that need an immediate response, these children

process a lot of delays that can present a professedly absurd barricade with both learning and

human emanations. If the teacher is untrained on how to handle such student, it may cause a lot

of stress to the student, but institutions have tried to help overcome this problem. For lingual

lectures, students are allowed to use recording devices or given handouts afterward. Another

problem that they face is sensory consciousness issues due to poor sensual balance and lack of

depth perception: some have a problem in some tastes, textures, colors or some types of sounds.

Some might be affected by the scratching of a pencil and squeaking of a piece of chalk on a

board. In this case, students are urged to speak openly to teachers so that the teachers and

administrators can learn to appreciate and alleviate problems that hamper the student's ability to

learn.

Some children with autism are usually made the odd one out due to social skill deficits

which cause them to be always lagged. In this case, a conscientious teacher can do very much

though it would be difficult: by encouraging the child to be involved with others to become

socially fluid, be able to learn how to interpret emotions. Though schools have tried to call

consultants and occupational therapists to help children with ASD to curb butterfly effects, it has

sometimes seemed not to work, and the only option is the teachers to try to understand and

accommodate them despite their uniqueness (Pierce et al., 2016). Behavioral consultants and

therapists have been hired to help set up classrooms in such a way that it accommodates children
with various challenges, teachers have encountered more problems than anticipated, but its smart

for all to take care of those that can be anticipated
