It aimed to discover what changes occur and how they effect the individual's life. This was done using qualitative research methods in which an open in-depth interview was central to capture the individuals' experiences. A key aim of this indigenous research was to examine the changes within their own context of a Maltese lifestyle and thus naturalistic research methods were deemed most appropriate.

However, inclusion is a value-based practice, which ultimately depends on the joint efforts of teachers, parents, facilitators, peers and the heads of schools. The present study is an attempt to understand the efforts and impact of those who want to create inclusive environment for students with autism.
