My sense is that #inclusion is being misunderstood atm. It's not about expecting everyone to fit into a one size fits all system then adjusting when they don't. It's about creating an environment that includes everyone through making adjustments ahead of time. Start by thinking about the outliers. 🙏🏻

This thing where some people are claiming that SEND is 'over diagnosed' because of 'pushy parents' or just = 'bad behaviour'. Perhaps they could tell our SENCOs who put in endless hours completing the paperwork to help children get a much needed diagnosis? 😒🤷‍♀️

A customer told me she couldn't believe this store would put up a Pride display, because what if children see it??

Anyway, it was my display, and I'm proud of it, and you (and your children) should all see it. #BookSky 📚💙

Belonging is not a “nice to have” Belonging is not built by chance. It is shaped by inclusive leadership, culturally responsive teaching, and relationships rooted in trust. A culture of belonging isn’t built by policy it is built by people, especially those in leadership.
