This is a great resource for parents, teachers and other
professionals supporting the transition of pupils on the autistic
spectrum in their move from primary into secondary education... It
is a resource that I would definitely recommend and one that can be
dipped in and out of as necessary, should a child be having
particular difficulty in understanding a specific aspect of this
very significant phase in his/ her education. -- British Journal
School of Nursing
Deserving of ongoing mention for parents, teachers and educators at
all levels... An ongoing, top recommendation. -- The Midwest Book
Review
The transition from primary to secondary school is a major event
for most kids, but MAKING THE MOVE is even more important, offering
a guide to transfer for pupils with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
Checklists for parents and kids alike make this a recommended pick
for parents of such students, as its fill-in workbook format offers
many useful resources from blank timetables to homework diaries and
more to help parents handle such kids. A specific, top pick for any
parent of ASD child moving their child through the education
system. -- The Midwest Book Review
