Подкаст TES SEND 12 в.1

At just 16 years old, Courtney Pemble is challenging the education system and giving a voice to young people who feel unheard. Recorded live at Tes SEND, Courtney joins host Georgie Green on the SEND Network Podcast to share her personal experiences of growing up with undiagnosed autism and ADHD, struggling with emotionally based school avoidance (EBSA), and ultimately leaving mainstream education after her needs went unmet. Despite missing out on her GCSEs, Courtney has gone on to launch her campaign, Fix the System, Not the Student, inspiring young people to speak out about their experiences. More than 2,500 young people have already shared their stories with her. In this powerful conversation, Courtney discusses the impact of masking her struggles at school, why listening to young people is so important, and how she's creating her own path to success through campaigning, boxing coaching and public speaking. Her message is simple: there's more than one path to success, and every young person deserves to be heard. 🎙️ Discover more conversations, insights and resources at SEND Network https://send-network.co.uk/ #SEND #SENDNetwork #Autism #ADHD #EBSA #InclusiveEducation 00:00 Introduction to the SEND Network Podcast 00:51 Meet Courtney Pemble 01:18 Leaving School After Unmet SEND Needs 02:40 Understanding Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) 03:15 Struggling Silently in the Classroom 04:01 Masking Autism and Trying to Fit In 05:55 Fix the System, Not the Student Campaign 07:13 2,500 Young People Share Their Experiences 08:43 What Needs to Change in Education? 10:20 Creating a Yearbook and Community 11:21 Courtney's Achievements and Final Thoughts
