Description
xIt Takes All Kinds of Minds provides an inspiring and accessible introduction to neurodiversity in educational settings, informed by research and real-world experience.
Drawing upon core principles that underpin the neurodiversity paradigm, the book offers a carefully curated collection of chapters exploring many different kinds of minds and how they can best learn and flourish at school. The book is divided into three main parts: Environments, Practice and Pedagogy, and Relationships In and Around School, with each chapter underpinned by core values of care, inclusion, celebration of difference and the collective power of diverse minds. Pioneering contributions help to realise a vision of environments, relational systems and pedagogical practices that are designed for all minds, learners and educators.
Placing a focus on amplifying neurodivergent voices and having a direct impact on practice, this book is essential reading for practitioners at all stages of teacher education and professional development, as well as clinicians and outside agencies that work in partnership with schools.
