Description

Sierra Leone’s classrooms are full, but not always inclusive.

In this episode of Honestly Speaking, Antonia Howard sits down with a specialist teacher trainer working to support children with special needs to unpack the hidden crisis of exclusion in our education system. From undiagnosed learning disabilities to outdated teaching methods, we explore how many children are being labelled as “dull,” “difficult,” or “disruptive” when in reality, they simply learn differently.

What does inclusion really mean in practice?
Are teachers equipped to identify and support children with learning challenges?
And what kind of system are we building? One that works for all, or only for some?
