Summary:
In this episode of Neurodivergent Spot, Sam Marion is joined by Sarah Templeton, an expert in neurodiversity, to discuss the critical issue of the school-to-prison pipeline and its impact on neurodivergent children, especially those with ADHD and autism. Sarah emphasizes the importance of recognizing early warning signs in schools and the role of teachers in providing the right support to prevent exclusion and negative outcomes. Sarah also explores the systemic lack of neurodiversity training in education and how better understanding can help avoid the stigmatization of neurodivergent students.

Quotes:

  1. "The school-to-prison pipeline is real, and it's full of neurodivergent kids. These children, if we don't get it right early, they could end up in prison."

  2. "Very rarely have the words 'try harder' or 'calm down' made any difference."

  3. "If we just view neurodivergence as a superpower, we ignore the support that so many need to thrive."
