Compassion Over Compliance: Reimagining Inclusion

I very much enjoyed chatting with Ann Byrne of Lead the Way podcast which focuses on educational leadership. We spoke about the importance of connection and relationships in schools, the power of small changes to language to make a big difference, and how adopting neuro-affirming inclusive practices can benefit the whole school community.

Topics included: Neurodiversity, Strength based approaches, The individual teacher within a rigid system, The importance of leading through example in creating a culture of acceptance and inclusion
