Educator Appraisal
This resource is useful for teachers to signpost parents to if they have questions about their child, and there is some good information about training for teachers, which they can book onto (at a cost), but it does not offer any educational tools for teachers to implement in class, and the website itself is quite tricky to navigate.

Evidence Rating
The National Autistic Society evaluates existing sources and rates them via its in-house criteria. They then use the highest-quality sources to develop their resources. We were unable to look at the in-house criteria and the way resources are evaluated. Additionally, we could not find evidence of the resources being implemented within schools.
