Abstract

This study dealt with the attitudes of parents of children on the autism spectrum towards primary school education. Parents of autistic children were found to have elevated stress rates relative to parents of neurotypical children. Research questions were designed to determine the parent's attitude towards primary school education and challenges faced by teachers in traditional school classrooms having children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). 
Thirty-six parents having children with ASD were given twenty questionnaire items covering three aspects of quality, barriers to supporting the learning of student on autism spectrum of teaching ASD pupils and satisfaction towards teaching pupils with ASD in regular schools. Descriptive analytical method was used to answer questionnaire and to test experimental hypotheses. 
Analysis of the study showed that most participants were not sure about services' quality of regular schools, and agreed that there are difficulties hindering successful teaching of ASD pupils in regular schools. Majority participants were not sure about their satisfaction towards teaching of children with ASD pupils in regular schools. But parents do agree that school adjusts assessment methods, curriculum, provides resource room, teamwork. 
The study could provide a clear grasp of parental expectations regarding academic and social consequences of participation of children with ASD with diverse severity in regular schools.
