Inclusive Practices

Practical Strategies

The purpose of this video is to provide practical advice from a neurodivergent student and a school leader on what adjustments and differentiation can look like, particularly in a secondary school setting. Their insights are relevant for teachers and educational support staff in both specialist and mainstream schools.

KEY INSIGHTS FROM THE VIDEO

  • Normalising adjustments and offering of ways for students to showcase their knowledge helps remove/lessen the anxiety that might
    come from being perceived as ‘different’.
