Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter › peer-review

Abstract

Discover how schools can embrace neurodiversity in this eye-opening chapter. We examine a child‘s day-to-day experiences as a lens for understanding how classroom environments and broader school cultures can adapt to meet diverse needs. Drawing on Bronfenbrenner‘s Ecological Systems Theory and the neurodiversity paradigm, our conversation spotlights how co-production and participatory methods can foster a truly inclusive ecosystem—both inside and outside the classroom.
