Challenging School Systems: Scripts and Strategies for Families

Listen to this episode from The Yellow Ladybugs Podcast on Spotify. Welcome to our eight-part podcast series sharing key topics and insights about supporting autistic girls, women, and gender-diverse people. In this episode, we're focusing on Challenging School Systems: Scripts and Strategies for Families with Kelsie Olds. This is for those of us who have sat in a school meeting with a knot in our stomach, knowing our child is struggling but being told they are ‘fine’. For those who feel they have to prove distress that others cannot see, and who carry their own trauma while trying to protect their children from theirs. Let’s talk about practical scripts, strategies, and mindset shifts to help families advocate effectively while caring for themselves in the process. With thanks to the Victorian Department of Education.
