Pre and post intervention research designs were used to investigate the impact of a school readiness intervention on the school skills of children diagnosed with ASD. A purposive sampling technique was used to select 31 children aged 6 to 9 years diagnosed with ASD. The results of the current study showed that school readiness intervention had positive impact on the school skills of children with autism spectrum disorder. Pre and post-assessment were carried out using the childhood autism rating scale and school skills assessment protocol taken from the assessment of functional living skills. The results of both tools were analyzed before and after applying the intervention. The analyses revealed that school readiness interventions were useful for the children as they yielded positive outcomes. Improvements were observed in the post-assessment as compared to the pre assessment level.
