Teacher here.
Have a lovely 14 year old girl who has ASD. She is keen, wants to please, but loses her temper easily. Can come across as very rude unintentionally when she's actually upset rather than angry if you follow me.
Unfortunately other kids have twigged she 'explodes.' Some unkinder ones actively try to make her do so. I really do throw the book at them when they do but she will lash out.
I've given her loads of praise when she ignores and I know it's hard ignoring kids when they are being horrible to you. I wondered if anyone had any strategies they have found that work? Would really like to help if I can.
Here are some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on special needs.

Sorry to barge in - any ideas?
