In the Schools | The Southport School
Remember the old poem about the secret ingredients for boys and girls? Snips and snails for boys, sugar and spice for girls. It wasn’t just a silly rhyme; it hinted at a truth: boys and girls experience the world differently. This applies to neurodivergence too. Autism and ADHD can manifest differently in males and females, leading to misdiagnosis or underdiagnosis in women.
For parents, this raises a crucial question: how can we ensure that neurodiverse children, regardless of gender, feel seen, understood, and supported?
On this episode, we go inside The Southport School, where its coeducational programs allow students to safely explore their learning differences through research-based, gender-inclusive approaches.
