So in fairness it is very possible to be Autistic or ADHD without diagnosis, becuase of the system and people who know FA about it.

Indeed Les and I doubt anyone would argue about it. That is not the same thing as declaring to the world that someone is definitely autistic on the basis of some scanty knowledge gleaned from the internet. And of course that is not the way Lizzie uses "Circle of Autism".

As for Stephen Wiltshire who of course is well known throughout the world and in fact has an MBE for services to art, I wonder if you went past the first page of his website Lizzie?

Stephen was lucky enough to be diagnosed as autistic at the age of three. He went to a community special school. Here is what the latest OFSTED Report says awarding it a top grade:

Queensmill is an outstanding school and the quality of provision in both the Foundation Stage and Key Stages 1 and 2 is excellent. The school recognises that in order for pupils to learn, they must first gain an effective means of communication and overcome the difficulties and anxieties brought about by their autistic spectrum disorder (ASD). The achievement and personal development of pupils throughout the school is outstanding as a result

From not speaking he was fluent by the age of nine.

Note Lizzie how succesful the intervention of specialist teachers was with Stephen and how they nurtured his talents. What a shame you did draw people's attention to it.

Now instead of arguing on here - and since you care about such things - have you do anything to help increase the provision of such intervention?

No? I thought not.
