This training will build upon the course offered by the Teaching School in February.

It is widely accepted that girls are often “missed” in terms of diagnosis of autism and may be facing additional challenges.

This course will cover:
· A deeper understanding of girls with autism
· How parents can support daughters
· How teachers can support girls in their class
· Strategies to support girls in school
The viewpoints and experiences of females with autism will be shared in this course to provide a unique perspective on the challenges faced by girls on a daily basis.
