Teacher 👩‍🏫 Slow runner 🏃‍♀️ AuDHD Traveller 🌍 Writes stuff ✍️ https://audhdtraveller.comhttps://bsky.app/profile/katiemayj.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/katiemayj.bsky.social/post/3mtityuir2c2nBeing a late diagnosed AuDHD woman has its challenges. You feel like a walking contradiction. You spent years masking, and need to discover who you are again. I love travelling. I have started to write about it through the lens of AuDHD to help others. www.audhdtraveller.com https://www.audhdtraveller.com20 Aug 2026 08:41 +0000at://did:plc:jr2tvswox63dzqfuncngs764/app.bsky.feed.post/3mtityuir2c2nhttps://bsky.app/profile/katiemayj.bsky.social/post/3mh4mfu6mk22dI feel I can weigh in on this one. It very much depends on how knowledgeable the senior leadership team are. At my current school, I am well supported but in others, I wasn’t. But ultimately, I am of the opinion that teaching on the whole isn’t a disability friendly profession.

I was the same teacher. The difference is that private schools have better resources, more PPA, more parent and classroom support etc. State school teachers are doing an amazing job and with far less.13 Sep 2024 15:45 +0000at://did:plc:jr2tvswox63dzqfuncngs764/app.bsky.feed.post/3l42chpimtz2zhttps://bsky.app/profile/katiemayj.bsky.social/post/3l3fj66mekl23School exclusions have risen by a fifth in England. These are children who were born into austerity and then hit with COVID. When schools were screaming that their students needed more mental health and emotional support, they were told to return to business as usual. Is anyone surprised?05 Sep 2024 09:19 +0000at://did:plc:jr2tvswox63dzqfuncngs764/app.bsky.feed.post/3l3fj66mekl23https://bsky.app/profile/katiemayj.bsky.social/post/3l3bq65isyd2hThe abolishment of the one-word ranking system from Ofsted should be celebrated.
