A study from the University of Exeter reveals that unaddressed needs in children with neurodisabilities lead to higher exclusion rates and negative long-term effects in education and justice systems.
🔍 𝐊𝐞𝐲 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬:
- Neurodivergent children are more likely to face exclusion and disciplinary actions.
- Behaviors seen as “defiance” often stem from unmet developmental, sensory, or self-regulation needs.
- Lack of timely support increases disengagement from education, heightening risk of the school-to-prison pipeline.
🌱 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞:
Behavior communicates needs. Unnoticed challenges in attention, emotional regulation, and sensory processing lead to punitive responses instead of support.
✨ 𝐒𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐄𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲 𝐒𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠:
- Reduces behavior misinterpretation
- Promotes inclusion
- Enhances family-school collaboration
- Prevents exclusion pathways
