Autism and Girls
This course provides an overview of autism in relation to girls. It looks at the diagnostic methods and explores why autism has often been thought of as a more 'male' condition.
We look at recent developments in our understanding of how autism presents in girls, addressing special interests, behaviour, social skills, masking/camouflaging, and mental health; examining how common autism is in girls, why it often goes undiagnosed until later in life, and why other diagnoses may be given instead.
We will also explore those areas where autism can pose challenges for girls and the adults around them, and discuss strategies and techniques to support.
Pupils will:
- be supported by practitioners who are aware of how autism can present in girls at different ages
Staff will:
- be more attuned to the needs of autistic girls and, more confident in how to support them
Settings will:
- be inclusive and attuned to the different presentations of autism in both boys and girls
Staff supporting autistic children in school settings, including LSAs, SENCOs, and Teachers.
