The study uses a qualitative approach and in-depth interviews to explore the views of parents, specialists, teachers, and autistic individuals of the use of virtual reality in education and therapy. The results suggest that VR has considerable potential as a tool, but that longitudinal research is required to investigate its effectiveness and safety and that VR should be used to support rather than replace other approaches. Effective use of VR will require appropriate training for teachers and therapists, consideration of individual needs, the diversity of autistic individuals and their sensory issues and have the potential to incorporate future technological developments.
