Girls and Autism
This workshop will highlight the presentation of autism in girls. Autism is generally identified at a much lower rate in females however recent studies have suggested a 2.1 boy/girl ratio. We will explore the role and implications of masking for autistic girls and how to best support. As a complex behavioural method, masking is employed by the autistic community to learn neurotypical behaviours and camouflage in social settings. This workshop will aim to examine the impact of masking and explore some of the reasons of its high prevalence in autistic girls.
Understanding and Managing Anxiety
This workshop focuses on anxiety - both at home and in school. Anxiety can often lead to children and young people withdrawing from family and peers, struggling to attend school or lowered grades as well as presenting itself through behaviour and actions. Strategies are presented to effectively reduce anxiety by building on a foundation of understanding.

We will also be discussing and looking at what happens after school and how best to support!
