Education and Girls on the Autism Spectrum
Jessica Kingsley Publishers (Verlag)
978-1-78592-460-6 (ISBN)
Addressing the gender gap in the understanding of autism, this multi-perspective book explores the educational needs of girls on the autism spectrum from early years to secondary school, in both mainstream and special settings. The collection, comprising insights from autistic women and girls and educational and medical professionals makes recommendations for a collaborative and integrated approach that enables girls on the spectrum to reach their full potential. By establishing close collaborations between girls on the spectrum, their parents, teachers and specialist professionals, the field can move forwards in terms of providing understanding and an appropriate educational framework for success.
Judith Hebron is a Lecturer in Psychology with Education at the University of Leeds. Caroline Bond is a Senior Lecturer in Educational and Child Psychology at the University of Manchester.
