SENsational - The Special Educational Needs Podcast

Show Notes

The exam period can be a particularly stressful and overwhelming time for neurodiverse children and young people, and so as parents and professionals, it is important to know how to help guide them through this.

In this episode of SENsational, we welcome Colin Foley, Training Director at the ADHD Foundation Neurodiversity Charity, and Chris Bonnello, an Autism advocate and author of ‘Autistic, Not weird’ as our expert speakers who talk about why neurodiverse children and young people find it hard to learn and retain information, offer strategies to help your child’s memory capacity, and share tips and techniques to help focus on revision and an exam.

Thank you for listening, and we hope you find this episode of SENsational useful. If you want to learn more about our other webinars and resources, please visit the website www.witherslackgroup.co.uk/resources. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
