Severely autistic 11 old lost 3 times in 3 weeks from 'Safe' and 'Secure' School

If the school didn't even notice that he was missing for 2 hours, that says a lot about the level of education being provided.  Pitiful. To lose the kid 3 times in 3 weeks shows that the school is clueless about autism and the associated dangers.

Parents' fury as autistic boy goes missing from school three times in three weeks - Parentdish
A furious dad is keeping his 11-year-old son, who is autistic, at home after he went missing from the 'safe and secure' Lindsworth School three times in as many weeks. 

Metal worker Martin Breakwell from Yardley, Birmingham, describes his son Ryan as being a 'severely autistic' boy with Asperger Syndrome and ADHD. 

He claims Ryan went missing early in September, then on another occasion where he was found in a phone box two miles away phoning the police for help, and, most recently, last Tuesday, where he turned up in an estate agents' office. 

He said the school took 'the best part of two hours' to realise he was missing on September 18. 

Martin, 42, said the school had been recommended to him by the education department because it would be 'safe and secure' for Ryan.
