I have first hand experience of several special schools and special infant units which successfully managed all sorts of children and behaviour WITHOUT shutting them in rooms all on their own. By the very fact that this girl is in a mainstream school her autism must be relatively mild therefore I can see no reason why the action they took was ever considered to be an appropriate response.
