S3 E28: Meaningful, Purposeful & Relevant Education | A Southern Dialogue with Clare Ford

Expert Educator Clare Ford is back, and today's discussion revolves around children being MORE than their grades. As Clare tells us, we can't say grades don't matter because 80% of children are defining themselves by their grades, but we can teach them they are more than their grades. The landscape of education has shifted over the last year and a half as they were forced to pivot into online learning. We chat about whether or not you can rely on the school system to provide a complete education that meets children's needs, and how the pandemic has been a gamechanger in education. As always, there are tips and tricks scattered throughout the episode to help you meet the needs of your children. We spend a good bit of time talking about the special needs of highly sensitive and autistic children in today's education system. This is a wonderful episode for parents, grandparents, teachers and anyone that works with or around children. Y'all come on in!
