What is ‘neurodiversity’ in the classroom and how should we respond to it?
Not every student’s brain works and learns in the same way. Classrooms are increasingly becoming more aware of what is known as "neurodiversity" among their students, a term used to describe neurodevelopmental disorders such as ADHD and ASD. We talk to Tracey Burns, Senior Analyst in the OECD's Directorate for Education and Skills, about how neurodiversity affects classroom learning and what schools can do to accommodate children that learn in a different way.
