This case study aimed to explore ASD pupils’ challenging behaviour, teachers’ approaches in managing these behaviour and effective strategies to maximize pupils’ classroom participation.

Observation protocol, field notes and documents analyses were used to gain the research data. Thirty minutes of daily observations in four consecutive weeks were conducted during the classroom teaching and learning. Emerging themes and researcher’s impressions were documented. Findings indicated that in terms of PISE, ASD pupils engaged in various types of challenging behaviours. The implementation of reward system, antecedent-behaviour-consequences (ABC), and teacher-parent partnership were able to promote positive behaviour in the classroom. ASD pupils’ classroom participation were also maximized through simplified instruction, interest-based learning activities, task analysis, multisensory approach and engaging classroom activities.
