==History==
In 2003, the Autism Resource Centre (ARC) launched a project to provide comprehensive support for autistic Singaporeans, which included plans to set up the first autism-focused special school in Singapore. The ARC collaborated with the Rainbow Centre over a period of five months to renovate the temporary campus, recruit school staff, decide on the school values and develop the school programmes.〔Ho Ka Wei, "School for autistic kids to open next year", ''The Sunday Times'', 20 July 2003.〕 After opening in 2004 with 10 teachers and 41 students,〔Leow Si Wan, "(A Path to work life )", ''The Straits Times'', 28 April 2010.〕 Pathlight School conducted charity walks, merchandise sales and other events to raise funds for the introduction of more programmes for an expanding intake.〔"$335,000 raised for Pathlight School", ''Channel NewsAsia'', 5 August 2006.〕 In 2007, two teachers from Pathlight School won the inaugural Most Outstanding Special Education Teacher Award and Most Innovative Special Education Teacher Award, given by the Singaporean Ministry of Education and National Council of Social Service.〔"(The inaugural MOE-NCSS Special Education Awards )", Ministry of Education press release, 16 November 2007.〕 In 2009, the Autism Association of Singapore launched a second autism-focused special school, Eden School, and the two schools formed a partnership.〔Loh Chee Kong, "An Eden for autistic children", ''Today'', 4 April 2009.〕 The following year, Pathlight School moved to its permanent campus and announced plans to develop student internship programmes,〔 build an information technology centre, and set up a lifelong learning club for alumni.〔
