Children with intellectual disabilities and children with autism in Scottish schools Lisa O’Leary, Angela Henderson, Myrthe Jacobs, Sally-Ann Cooper

Background People with intellectual disabilities and people with autism experience health inequalities across the life course These health inequalities start early in life. For example children with intellectual disabilities, and children with autism are at risk of higher rates of obesity (Emerson & Robertson, 2010; Curtin et al. 2014) Education can influence these health inequalities (Public Health England, 2012)

Practical drivers Need to understand the individual characteristics and social contextual factors that influence the lives of children and young people with intellectual disabilities and/or autism Need to plan and implement early interventions for pupils with autism and pupils with intellectual disabilities Need to support future service planning for these populations

Policy drivers in Scotland Keys to life recommendation 39 : Develop informed transition planning to report on the impact of implementation of the Children and Young Peoples’ Act for people in these population groups. This GIFERC which is centrede on Getting it right for every child centres on improving, focuses on the responsiveness of services for the needs of chidlren

Aims 1. What is the reported prevalence rate for intellectual disabilities and autism among pupils in Scotland? 2. What are the trends in this reported prevalence rate over time in Scotland? 3. What are the demographics and characteristics of pupils with intellectual disabilities and autism in Scotland?

Methods Secondary descriptive analysis of data from the Scottish Pupil Census: Years 2008-2015

The Scottish Pupil Census data source Includes all publically funded, primary, secondary and special schools in Scotland Includes pupils aged 4.5-19 years Primary schools: 7 years: Secondary schools: 6 years Provides information on additional support needs Changes in how additional support was recorded post 2006 Reliable coding of intellectual disability and autism data from 2008 The Pupil Census in Scotland is carried out on a yearly basis in September (Scottish Government, 2015). The information is collected electronically from schools’ management information systems through the ScotXed programme. ScotXed ensures that data exchanges are effective and secure

Reported prevalence of pupils with intellectual disabilities 2.38% 2.35% 2.3% 2.25% 2.19% 1.71% 1.36% 1.31%

Reported prevalence of females pupils with intellectual disabilities You can see from the graph that there was a slight increase in reports of females with intellectual disabilites over time, and a slight reduction in males

Reported prevalence of intellectual disabilities male pupils with intellectual disabilities Reported prevalence of pupils with intellectual disabilities for females

Prevalence of intellectual disabilities by different schools over time Increase in prevalence of pupils with intellectual disabilities in mainstream education (primary and secondary school), reduction in special schools 53.84% in mainstream education in 2008 70.19% in mainstream education 2015

Prevalence of intellectual disabilities by different schools over time School trends in 2008 School trends in 2015 28.14% 29.82% 38.98% 46.16% 46.16% 25.7% Increase in prevalence of pupils with intellectual disabilities in mainstream education (primary and secondary school), reduction in special schools 53.84% in mainstream education in 2008 70.19% in mainstream education 2015 31.21%

Reported prevalence of pupils with autism over time 1.72% 1.6% 1.48% 1.29% 1.16% 0.97% 0.78% 0.72%

Reported prevalence of female pupils with autism Gender of pupils with Gender of pupils with intellectual disabilities over time More males than females are identified as having ASD. In 2015, 83.68% of pupils with ASD were male and 16.32% were female. These proportions have been similar since 2008, although a slight increase in the proportion of females can be seen up until 2015.

Reported prevalence of males pupils with autism

Prevalence of intellectual disabilities by different schools over time Prevalence of autism by different schools over time Prevalence of intellectual disabilities by different schools over time

Prevalence of intellectual disabilities by different schools over time Prevalence of autism by different schools over time School trends in 2008 School trends in 2015 Prevalence of intellectual disabilities by different schools over time 24.55% 18.84% 45.29% 41.78% 30.16% 39.38%

Overall pupil trends in Scotland: 2008-2015 Increased reports of pupils with autism from 2008-2015 Increased reports of pupils with intellectual disabilities from 2008-2012 Increased reports of pupils with intellectual disabilities in mainstream schools Increased reports of pupils with autism in secondary schools

Limitations and implications of findings so far Limitations of proxy reported data collected in census Level of intellectual disability not provide in census Restricted to publically funded schools Need to collect more detailed information about the characteristics of pupils Overall trends for pupils with autism in Scotland: 2008-2015 Perce

Future directions The SLDO team plan to undertake further exploration of the Scottish Pupil Census
