Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Understanding School Avoidance (EBSA) in SEND
Q: What three actions can professionals take immediately to support students showing signs of EBSA?
Start with empathy to understand the underlying anxiety, foster cross-school collaboration so all staff recognize the signs and respond consistently, and adopt trauma-informed approaches that support students while benefiting those without trauma.
Season 9 Episode 5: Rethinking Assessment and Skill Development in SEND
Q: What role does early intervention play according to this episode?
Early insight is crucial; rather than waiting for crisis, the approach should identify needs and build foundational learning skills in the primary years to reduce later SEND demand and improve long-term outcomes.
Season 9 Episode 5: Rethinking Assessment and Skill Development in SEND
Q: How does technology fit into this new model of learning?
Technology is a enabling tool to deliver targeted, individualized resources and feedback, but the core is still human-centric: teachers are trained to teach students how to learn, with digital tools supporting data-informed decisions and scalable interventions.
Season 9 Episode 4: Beyond the NEET Statistics
Q: Where do we start to change the risk of students becoming NEET?
Dr. Smith emphasizes that we need to notice unmet needs sooner and provide support immediately, rather than waiting until students are on the brink of disengagement.
Season 9 Episode 1: Creating true inclusion in schools: practical strategies for neurodiverse learners with Dr Freya Spicer-White
Q: What practical strategies can schools implement to support neurodiverse students?
Educators can create calming classroom environments with muted colors, establish sensory-friendly areas, and implement strategies like visual timetables which benefit all students, not just those with neurodiversity.
