Swindon Autism Support Service Now taking referrals for pupils aged 4-16 affected by autism or related difficulty to access sessions of therapeutic social skills activity. Autism Resource Centre ARC What is ARC? Swindon ARC bases offer an enhanced education programme of social communication and therapeutic learning activity led by an ASC teacher or Senior ASC Worker and experienced ASC support staff for pupils between the ages of 4 and 16. These will be pupils/students with a core difficulty around social communication and interaction who may or may not have a diagnosis of autism. They may be on a reduced timetable, undergoing gradual integration/re- integration to school, struggling to function in school and access lessons in school or perhaps at risk of exclusion where school staff and parents are looking to be proactive in managing difficult times.
