This week we have a vitally important topic that we hope all listeners will benefit from. Colin McGill interviews Lynn McCann and Catrina Lowri on how we can best support neurodivergent teachers to thrive in school.
Lynn McCann is an Autism, ADHD and PDE Specialist teacher and author. She is the owner of Reach out ASC, which is a team of neurodivergent teachers working to support autistic, ADHD and PDE young people in schools.
Catrina Lowri is the founder of Neuroteachers. She is a neurodivergent teacher who has over twenty years experience as a SENCO, special needs and advisory teacher.
In tackling this question, they explore:
1. What are the specific issues faced by neurodivergent teachers?

2. Why is it important that we have neurodivergent teachers in the teaching profession?

3. What can mentors/school leaders/ITE lecturers do to support neurodivergent teachers and student teachers?

4. What advice would you give to a neurodivergent student teacher about to embark on a school placement?

5. What can we do to improve the retention of neurodivergent teachers?
Thank you for listening. If you find the episode useful, please do pass it on!
