Andrew Fuller on converting neurodiversity into neuro-advantage

Andrew Fuller on converting neurodiversity into neuro-advantage9 Aug36 min

We're joined by Andrew Fuller, a renowned clinical psychologist, author and family therapist. Ahead of the National Education Summit in Melbourne this September, where he'll be presenting 2 sessions, Andrew sits down to discuss his work on converting neurodiversity into ‘neuro-advantage’. In this episode, we explore 3 key themes – transitions and regulation, school belonging and finding your people, and how educators can help turn neurodivergence into a genuine advantage for young people. This is a highly practical conversation where we move beyond theory and into real-world examples. Andrew tells stories, provides scripts, and even role-plays scenarios that are likely to resonate with teachers and school leaders.
