Podcast 61 Preparing for Next Year: A Parent’s Guide to Smooth Transitions, Teacher Handovers & Setting Your Child Up for Success

The start of a new school year can feel overwhelming for neurodivergent children — and for the parents supporting them. New teachers, new routines, new expectations… and all the uncertainty that comes with Term 1.

In this episode of Navigating Neurodiverse Education, I break down how to make next year calmer, smoother, and safer for your child by putting the right supports in place before Day 1 even arrives.

You’ll learn:

✨ What effective teacher handovers MUST include
 ✨ Transition strategies for autistic, ADHD, and anxious learners
 ✨ How to create an “About My Child” profile that sets your child up for success
 ✨ What supports to request in writing before school starts
 ✨ Holiday routines that reduce anxiety and make the return to school gentler

If you want a more predictable, connected, and regulated start to next year — this episode is your roadmap. Your child deserves a teacher who understands them from Day 1, and you deserve a peaceful beginning to the school year.
