I want to be an ASD Teacher...But how?

Laura McQuade

Hello, I'm a fully qualified early years practitioner (NC & HNC) who is very interested in being an ASD Teacher as I have seen first-hand the excellent work these teachers do for children on the spectrum as my nephew is on it and has developed in leaps and bounds in the last 2 years thanks to ASD Teachers.

ASD Teachers seem to still be a fairly new thing and finding information on what I have to study in order to become one is limited at least in Scotland. From what I have gathered the BA Honours in Childhood practice degree and undergrad inclusive education (MED) seem to be the main qualifications. 

So are there any Scottish ASD teachers out there that can fill me in on what you had to do in order to get your career. Can you offer me any advice and any other courses or career path that are along the same lines.

 Thanks a lot.

  • Thank you very much for your reply.

    Since writing this post I have written to my nephew's school and asking them the same question, they haven't responded yet but when and if they do I will post their answer here so that anyone else thinking about this career might gain a clearly picture of what they need to do.
