Description: Pupils with a disability can be vulnerable, especially to bullies. For children or adolescents with autism or Asperger syndrome school can be particularly tough, as the nature of autism makes it hard to communicate and relate to others socially. The purpose of this booklet is to look at positive ways to prevent a child being bullied or to help reduce the bullying that they have been subjected to. This handy and practical booklet finds ways to help children through their school days and educates teachers and pupils alike of the difficulties that a person with autism and Asperger syndrome face.
