Episode notes

Jordan and Milan discuss the differences between compliance-based and neuro-affirming approaches in education, particularly for neurodivergent learners. They explore how compliance-based practices often prioritise standardisation and deficit-focused methods, while neuro-affirming practices celebrate individual differences and promote agency. The discussion emphasises the importance of validation, adapting communication methods, and implementing strategies like RISE therapy to create a more inclusive and supportive learning environment.

This punchy 50 minute episode is packed to the brim with useful insights and tips to bring in to your own home and classroom.
