More from SEN in Ten
Darren speaks with Rossie Stone, founder of Dekko Comics, about how his own experience of dyslexia inspired him to transform educational content into engaging comic-strip stories. He advocates for embracing different ways of thinking, encouraging creativity, and recognising the value of "out-of-the-box" thinkers both in education and the workplace.
Darren speaks to Nathalie Senat van Dijk about the lack of SEN support available in many French schools and the importance of building a supportive community for parents. She believes that parents, students, and teachers all need guidance following a diagnosis such as dyslexia or ADHD, and advocates for greater awareness, collaboration, and practical strategies to help children succeed.
Darren speaks to Liz Day, founder of Collectively Diverse, about the growing need for greater understanding, the challenges around diagnosis waiting lists, and how initiatives like Liz’s new “Champions for Difference” programme are helping communities embrace difference as a strength.
Darren speaks to Taimur Khan, founder of SENDSORTA, as he discusses helping parents of children with special educational needs navigate complex systems and access support through simple, step-by-step guidance.
Darren speaks to Ginny Bootman and Dr Sarah Moseley as they share their journeys into special education, shaped by both professional experience and personal struggles with learning. They highlight the importance of lived experience, removing barriers for both pupils and teachers, and empowering SENCOs to focus on classroom impact rather than paperwork.
