Summary

DESCRIPTION: In this episode, Tem chats with Cliff and Eva from the Parenting Autism & ADHD podcast about the challenges neurodiverse children face in mainstream schools and the transformative impact of specialist education. Eva shares her personal experiences of being misunderstood in a traditional classroom and the ways point systems and social expectations often failed to support her and we discuss practical strategies parents and teachers can use to create supportive learning environments for children with autism and ADHD. If you would like to enquire about trauma-informed training, please contact Tem at [email protected] or book a call: https://calendly.com/tem-helpingteachersthrive/60 KEY TAKEAWAYS: Sensory overwhelm, social anxiety, and unmet learning needs that neurodiverse children have to navigate daily Ways educators can adapt classrooms and teaching strategies to better support neurodiverse learners. Focusing on a child’s strengths, rather than only their challenges, can improve learning outcomes and emotional well-being. BEST MOMENTS: "The child's dropped and suddenly they're not engaging and they're shut down." "It's the little things, the little details that really make a difference for children like Eva" "I use it to draw and to regulate my emotions" "I can draw and listen at the same time."
