Education In Nigeria for children with Autism

              I always wonder what facilities that are there to support autistic children, what baffles me is the lack of resources and support....understanding  the mind of an autistic child needs alot of patience, time and resources. Its expensive and usually its the Goverment that supports ... It will be helpful to hear other parents views and experiences...Please introduce yourself....example..Mother of a 6 year old boy with autism....

    hello my name is Amina, I have a 7 year old autistic son=Jnr. I agree with you that theres nothing out there in schools that cater for children with autism. its been tough. Jnr is in a mainstream school with teacher assistant whose role is to keep Jnr quiet all day! how is he suppose to learn?
    She is not equipped to teach him any self help skills..I certainly will like to know if there are any schools out there in Nigeria that is well equipped. It does not matter where it is....
    Thanks
