Word of the Day is ‘ingordigiousness’ (18th century): extreme greed at the expense of principles.

Had a lovely annual review this week. It was so positive and an awesome amount of progress has been made - the child has worked so hard!! Support coming from home and school working together. Yeay! When it works, it works! #sendco #SENDsky #edusend #ehcp #additionalneeds

Shameless plug for my 15 year old AuDHD daughter who is doing something AWESOME which is going to stretch her soooooo far! Supporting communities and re-foreststion in Cambodia. Very proud. #autism #adhd #inclusion #breakingbarriers

Study day! Must say, the language used around Autism (especially historically) gives me the big Ick!!!!! 🤢 #MEd #Masters #Autism #Maturestudent

#SENDCo life is trying to get it right for every child all the time and sometimes not hitting the mark despite absolute best efforts. #sendsky #edusend #edusky

Happy New Year, and all that jazz!!! Quiet one here last night! The ND amongst us were tucked up (me first by 10!) Whilst the NTs managed to stay up until 12.30! I hope you all have a gentle and kind 2025. #HNY #2025 #actuallyautistic #autistic #neurodiversity #adhd

There’s always an assumption that low nos of children with SEND at a school means they’ve been turned away or kicked out: it could mean that some of these schools have inclusion right & so more children don’t need different from/additional to what’s universally on offer. /1

Today was a day of two halves...eldest had a meltdown due to unexpected change of plans and lots of being prodded (hospital visit!). Horrible for them. Then lovely festive Afternoon Tea with my husband when they were happily back at school.

Top English academy trust faces safeguarding review over ‘emotional abuse’ of pupils Observer investigation into London school has sparked an inquiry into allegations that teachers harmed mental wellbeing of children

"Zero tolerance" regimes have no place in education. Any compliance is born out of fear. These people who espouse such behaviour policies should not be working with children. There. I've said it. #inclusion #safeguarding #behaviour #SENDsky #SENDCo

Eldest has just had a meltdown and had to be picked up early from the place they love being on a Saturday morning because they haven't been able to understand the interpersonal stuff going on there. Makes me very sad for them and triggers me from my teen years. #SENDparent #autism #adhd #SENDsky

I feel like it's basically expected by this point in December!

Emily is wearing a tacky Christmas jumper with pictures from 1950s/60s decorations on it.

Last couple of days of 'In School' work coming up and I am getting into the spirit! This top is a sensory nightmare but I do love it sooooooooo... #autisticproblems #autism #adhd

SEND Provision: Autism and ADHD – in the House of Commons at 4:05 pm 12 December 2024

Short debate on SEND Provision: Autism/ADHD. But the Minister did not address the issues of children left without provision in her drive to shoehorn more SEND children in mainstream. Teaching children in corridors as they can’t cope in class is no answer. www.theyworkforyou.com/debates/?id=...

I love and miss secondary! Year 6 is tough even without any extra responsibility!! Sorry you're struggling - it's such a long term too.

I had a HORRIBLE time at school. I had a 32.5hr Statement (old school EHCP) with a 1:1 velcro T.A from age 9 until A'levels. I hated every moment of it. I'm so very passionate about getting SEND right in schools so no other child has to feel that way. #EduSEND #SENDsky #inclusion #autism #adhd

Heyyyyyy!!! I moved into primary 7 years ago after 15 years in secondary (there was a few years of working in both at the same time!). Primary schools at Christmas.....woah!

"Shutdowns are a sign of extreme sensory distress and overload.....something should be re-evaluated to better fit with that person’s neurology."

Only neurotypicals seem to say things like 'I can be a bit on the spectrum' as an excuse for bad conduct.
Besides, autists not being empathetic has been somewhat debunked. Studies show some autists simply don't know how to *express* the empathy they feel. Also: many autists suffer from hyper-empathy

Thank you!!

I burnt out and couldn't work for 9 months...tweaked how I work and now I can not only function, but thrive!

NEW POST: Yet another new report muses reducing the educational rights of disabled children. In dispassionate tones, the Institute for Fiscal Studies treats SEND learners like widgets instead of vulnerable children. Here's what we think… www.specialneedsjung...{SOCIAL_NETWORK}&utm_medium=ZM

Hello #EduSEND! Once upon a time I had a fair few followers on "the other site" before I deleted my account. I'd love to build a network back up here! Are there any #SENCo #SENDparents #Actuallyautistic #ADHD peeps who would like to connect?!
