[senco-forum] All Asperger's in one basket ???

We've got 3 lads with Aspergers - 2 with statements - one very low skills as well - shall we put them all in the same Year 7 class ? Janice Wray Secondary SENCO, Herts

A support group was set up by a psychologist in our area for boys with
AS.  It didn't work because they had 'nothing in common'. Each of them
had a different 'special interest'.

Strange really, I would have thought they had lots in common - sensory
overload, difficulties in communicating with NTs, etc

But really there is very little that people with AS share with each
other as even sensory overload, and communication skills differ widely
from person to person.
