Autism refers to a 'developmental disorder' which is a developmental problem. According to the medical dictionary, autism is the state of being absorbed in fantasy and escape from reality. This definition refers more to the behaviour displayed by autistic children. The disabilities that autistic children have are in terms of social interaction, communication and behaviour. This will make these children being misunderstood by the community including their own teachers and parents. Therefore, there are a number of early intervention programmes that researchers in the field have found to help children diagnosed with autism to live their lives better. The purpose of this study was to identify early intervention programmes implemented by special education teachers and their impact on children's development.
