Shocked disabled campaigners have questioned why the disability charity Scope has partnered with a “scaremongering” national newspaper notorious for its hostile coverage of disabled people and other marginalised groups. buff.ly/49UQhSs
What’s said “We need to be aware of the impact that that these ablest posters have on SEND/disabled pupils” What’s heard “what, so we shouldn’t have any rules or expectations?” It’s a good example of why the cogsci stuff is flawed, when outraged it’s hard to listen well

It would be really nice if schools started to realise the duty they have to their disabled and neurodivergent students/staff under the equality act….

@airedaletales I can tell you that if you ever go to a conference with teachers they don’t do any of that!

Ewww the ableism here. No wonder schools are so toxic for disabled and ND children if this is what’s being pushed and celebrated

One of the autism diagnostic criteria in ICD10 that bothers me the most is 'adherence to non-functional routines'. It projects NT prejudice so clearly. Those routines absolutely have a clear purpose.
‘If they don’t like it, they can go elsewhere’. This is why high control schools will never work for all. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan… The Michaela ruling shows exactly why high control school environments aren’t scalable - and why problems ensure when all the schools in an area…
‘Highest priority outcome was better mental wellbeing, lowest reducing sensory seeking or avoidant behaviours. Results support targeting outcomes meaningful to autistic & autism communities, rather than NT behavioural standards.’ link.springer.com/article/10.100… #BetterWaysThanABA
Our own @e_mine_gurbuz found autistic (vs non-autistic) had less expectation of being liked. Greater anticipation of rejection related to social anxiety, not autistic traits. Study suggests need to change attitudes to improve autistics' social experiences. rdcu.be/dFfZ0
I’m not against supporting Autistic People with high support needs. My nephew has extremely high support needs. I’m against people who hawk snake oil to vulnerable people and their families. I’m extremely against that.

So don't be on benefits, but don't have support to get into work, but actually just don't exist. That's the Tory line for disabled people.

@Shrink_at_Large I have a question as well - the NHS won't recognise either of my two ADHD diagnoses from specialist psychiatrists but the Psych who saw me in crisis for 45 mins over zoom and decided it was EUPD without assessment? No problem. 1/2

@grahamchatterl2 @AP_Teaching Because socially & professionally its an expectation that people demonstrate that they're attending. Kids with ASD - & it's a broad church, many can already do these things - benefit from learning some strategies to see them through interviews, appointments & dates as adults.
@damechatprrr @grahamchatterl2 Nope. Better to advocate for societal change, rather than force someone to go through severe distress. It is entirely right to have high expectations and hopes for SEN young people, and offering them opportunities to succeed is very different to forcing through failure.
@damechatprrr @AP_Teaching So you encourage ableism then You’d rather they mask at detriment to their own health to make you feel better And then label it high expectations
@KieranRose7 @milton_damian @need_coffee_now I only ever see this guy being awful to Disabled ppl, so him calling supporting Disabled children as “ideology” while dismissing critique from Disabled ppl as “faux outrage” is part of a pattern & should be noted as such.

Some extremely dangerous reading here. I'd love to tell @educationgovuk about the trauma restraints caused our #ActuallyAutistic YP & family @AQuinnUnbroken @AT_Autism @DrRuthMoyse @JoPavlopoulou @AnnMemmott @ICARSBanRandS @MorrisonBeth @gdmorewood @studioIII
New @educationgovuk research into the use of reasonable force and restraint in special schools and alternative provision could offer some clues on how future guidance will develop tes.com/magazine/analy…
1/2 This language & statement highlights the lack of training received & understanding held of Autistic experience by so many teachers It also shows the lack of understanding of the impact of stigma via implicit micro-aggressions in normative environments on identity development
@need_coffee_now Nobody would 'force' a young person with autism to make eye contact. You're talking nonsense.
@milton_damian @MrLeeDaviid @need_coffee_now It wouldn't be an educational acronym if it wasn't superficial and arbitralily applied - otherwise, how would the applicators of it get to flip-flop around and infer what they want it to when it suits them?

@Ria1984 How do you know which children need to fiddle and who doesn’t? Who gets the concession?
Most children with ADHD/trauma can sit still and not fidget It makes life a lot more difficult, is tiring and affects their ability to process and retain information effectively But they can do it to stay out of trouble…

We need to be compassionate to students because we don’t know what they’re experiencing - domestic violence, mental health crises, caring, disability, all can impact their experiences of assessment #LTHEchat
@CommonSenseSLT @educationgovuk @AQuinnUnbroken @AT_Autism @DrRuthMoyse @JoPavlopoulou @ICARSBanRandS @MorrisonBeth @gdmorewood @studioIII Using pretty words does not change how a child experiences & remembers adults forcing them to endure more pain/overwhelm /powerlessness in moments of crisis.
having a conservative backlash is good publicity as far as I'm concerned. i welcome it.
There's bits that I disagree with in @DrRJChapman's work as a non-Marxist. But oh my word, with all the reviews and articles popping up, I wonder if the writers have actually read their book. Ps. Majority of the book offers a profound articulation of our current predicament.
