Why We’re Losing Neurodiverse Teachers – And Why We Can’t Afford To
Teaching is tough—but for neurodiverse teachers, the system can be unbearable. More and more autistic, ADHD, dyslexic, and otherwise neurodivergent educators are leaving the profession due to burnout. And it’s not just a loss for them—it’s a loss for our kids.
In this powerful episode of Navigating Neurodiverse Education, we explore:
- The hidden pressures pushing neurodiverse teachers out of classrooms
- How masking, admin overload, and sensory overwhelm lead to burnout
- Why neurodiverse teachers are essential for supporting neurodivergent students
- What schools, parents, and policymakers can do to nurture—not lose—these brilliant educators
If you’re a parent of a neurodivergent child, a teacher, or anyone who cares about the future of education, this conversation is a must-listen.
🎙️ Tune in now—because when we protect and empower neurodiverse teachers, we give neurodivergent children their best chance to succeed.
