In these short podcast clips, we offer nuggets of information from our longer podcasts that give advice and quick tips to help you as teachers recognise children’s needs and respond more efficiently, empowering you to adapt teaching effectively.
Barry Carpenter is the UK’s first Professor in Mental Health in Education and is Honorary Professor at universities in the UK, Ireland, Germany and Australia. In July 2020 he was awarded the Distinguished Fellowship of the Chartered College of Teaching , for his leadership of the Education field during the pandemic. He has been awarded an OBE and CBE by the late Queen for services to children with Special Needs.
In this nugget we discuss girls with Autism, the signs we can be looking for in girls in our classes that will help us to notice specific needs, and ideas on what we can do as teachers to support girls with Autism.
All too often girls with Autism become excellent at masking their differences and challenges, especially at primary school, only to struggle alone during the teen years. Barry talks about ways that we can recognise and respond early through differentiation and adaptive teaching, in order to make an important and lasting difference.
We hope you enjoy listening to this Nip in the bud nugget, why not go back and listen to the whole episode with my guest Barry Carpenter to hear more tips and advice for teaching children effectively.
