REALLY NEED HELP!!!

ParentingAutism

My 14 y.o is refusing to do school work in school. Teachers have been trying to encourage her and been trying to help a lot but she just won't move. She will sit with her head on the desk with her hood up. Teachers will include her favourite hobbies in her work and reward her by looking at them on the laptop when she's done. But instead she will look at them during breaks/lunch and during her lessons and when she is told to do work she will just refuse. When teachers try to take the laptop away she will just find another one then become extremely frustrated and upset if teachers try take it away again. I'm just lost with her behaviour... I need help. Anyone know how to help?? 

Thanks x
