With scores of learners from coastal schools re-opening for the 2023 academic year, parents with children living with autism say they continue to face many struggles.

They complain about the lack of access to proper schools and the never-ending waiting lists that some children are subjected to every year.

Over 80 students in the Eastern Cape have autism spectrum disorder. 13-year-old Akahlulwa Ngxinto has been sent from pillar to post in search of a school for the past five years. His 55-year-old grandmother, Lulama Fukuzela resorted to homeschooling him. Civil rights organisation, Autism Matters says the lack of attention and support given to children living with autism is a violation of their constitutional rights.
