Navigating Neurodiverse Education Podcast

Interview between Ruth and Leonie
Join Leonie on a heartfelt journey to find the perfect school for her neurodivergent son, Ned. With the help of an insightful education consultant who asked the right questions, Leonie realized that the key wasn't choosing a school for the next 13 years—but finding the right fit for today. Her goal was simple: to find a school that would nurture Ned, build his confidence, and make him feel truly included.

Despite facing challenges, including being told by the former principal that Ned wouldn’t be a good fit, Leonie’s determination and advocacy paid off. A year later, she couldn’t be happier with her decision, believing she’s found the "Perfect School Package" for Ned.

Tune in to hear how Leonie’s perseverance secured Ned’s place at the right school, what she looked for during school tours, and the essential tips that helped her find a school that not only accepts Ned but fully understands and supports him.
