Its supprising in this day and age that Schools are this ignorant to ASD.
I was in Primark the other day 'against my will' it was an unsheduled stop and out side was just as busy so i went in, a friend the only one i have wanted to go in, no matter where i stood people wanted to be and looking at peoples behaviour i said to my friend i cant get my head around how the Human race ever evolved past chucking Spears at Animals, She laughed but i wasnt joking.
To try and put a positive spin on things Collages offer some great access courses Level 2 and 3 all is far from lost Gcses form what i understand these days are only taken seriously for a couple of years after doing them anyway, entrance exams are still oftern required.
Maybe making sure you son can reach level 2 in relevent subjects is more important, doing work at home, at his pace and in a way that he finds interesting.
I wasnt educated after Yr 9 but interest, logic and comon sence have allowed me to pass loads of entrance exams for level3 access courses at college.
All is far from lost don't dwell on it to much once it passes past the point of which you can do something there is always something else just try to be positive and look forward, try to make your Son aware that all is not lost and theres alot available. School doesnt work for everyone and unfortunatly alot of schools are still really ignorant, if they was crutches or a wheel chair they wound know what to do 'but with this being hidden'.
All the best hope some of this may help.
