About this Study 

 

This PhD study's focus is on finding out more about students with ASD who are attending mainstream secondary schools in Ireland. We know very little about how students with ASD progress and participate in secondary school.  This phase of the study will focus on parents and teachers. It is is designed to look at behaviours and social factors which relate to the students' ability to integrate and participate in secondary school. It is hoped the study will help to improve policy and support for children with ASD in secondary school. This PhD  is being completed in the Children’s Research Centre, Trinity College Dublin (TCD) and supervised in the School of Psychology , TCD.
