School placements are a key moment in teacher training, but they can be particularly challenging for some neurodivergent beginner teachers. Kate Freeth and Lucy Hoyes share their project using digital stories to help neurodivergent beginner teachers, and by extension, all beginner teachers, have more successful placements in schools on their PGCE.

Lucy Hoyes is the Co-Director of Initial Teacher Education, where she works closely with the mathematics PGCE and champions inclusive practice, with a big focus on supporting beginning teachers’ wellbeing and confidence. She loves helping new teachers find their feet and feel at home in the teaching profession. Connect with Lucy here on LinkedIn
