Services for autistic children in Abu Dhabi

We are thinking to relocate to Abu Dhabi with our two children (4 & 2 years old).
Our older boy has been diagnosed with an autistic spectrum disorder which means that he needs special attention.
His condition is mild so he does not need to go to a special school.

What he needs is:

- Support in class (to help with sozialising aspects as well as academic)
- Speech Therapist
- Occupational Therapist

Can anyone give us information about these services there, are they generally available through the school system (private/public?) or where do we need to go to apply for them?

We would also appreciate any input from parents with autistic children in AD.

Many thanx to those who take the time to respond
