This book provides strategies for teachers and parents to teach life skills to autistic girls aged 11 to 15, and offers ways to support their wellbeing and boost their self-esteem. Includes advice on communication, mental health, self-regulation, transitions and personal safety.
Autistic girls can be frequently misunderstood, underestimated and therefore anxious in a school environment. This practical book offers an innovative life skills curriculum for autistic girls aged 11 to 15, based on the author's successful workshops and training, which show how to support girls' wellbeing and boost their self-esteem.

Including an adapted PSHE curriculum, this is a straightforward guide to educating autistic children on the issues that matter most to them. It covers all essential areas of wellbeing, including communication, identity, self-regulation and triggers, safety, and physical and mental health, and offers the reader strategies to help the autistic girls in their lives enhance and develop these.

Helen Clarke worked as a teacher of autistic children for 20 years, and now runs her own autism consultancy (https://helenclarkeautism.com), providing autism training to schools and organisations. As an autistic woman herself, and with an autistic daughter, she is particularly passionate about supporting autistic girls to achieve good health and reach their academic potential. Helen is a public speaker and spoke at the recent NAS Women and Girls conference.
