In this interview, I sit down with Kit Messenger — co-founder of Changing Chances and co-author of Curious Not Furious — to talk about ADHD, behaviour, neurodiversity, school uniform, and why so many young people feel misunderstood in school.

Check out Changing Chances:

We discuss:
• Why some students struggle with behaviour
• How ADHD and autism affect learning and emotions
• What “brain best” really means
• How school uniform rules impact young people
• How teachers and families can support students better
• The Empowerment Approach
• A message for anyone finding school difficult right now

Kit’s work focuses on compassion, understanding and helping young people take charge of their brains and behaviour in a positive way.
