These links are very helpful and explain why school have been clamping down more on arriving at lessons on time. Fortunately they have responded to the reminder of a previous agreement, but I still don't think they fully understand how difficult the environment is. It is my view that many people don't understand fully unless they have experience themselves or in their immediate family.

I think you're right and society just doesn't understand unless they have personal experience of autism. It's the double empathy problem in action.
Schools should be more understanding, given the training they have and the fact that more children are diagnosed than adults.
Everything I read on the subject suggests that there is a growing problem. I think perhaps that the experience of home schooling during Covid has made people realise that there is another way.
