Welcome to this episode of "After The Bell’ the podcast from Connex Academy where we dive into the world of education and bring you valuable insights. We are delighted to be joined in this episode by Neil Hopkins and Carol Thompson authors of Reflections on Identity, which was published in January. Neil and Carol are both lecturers at the University of Bedfordshire
Reflections on Identity brings Educators and leaders from a variety of settings to explore their professional experiences and the impact these have had on forming values in their professional roles.
The book takes an interesting narrative approach, and this allows a conversation about this topic. Drawing on personal experience, individual chapter authors have considered some of the challenges they have encountered as part of their identity formation.
It also focuses on the importance of organisational cultures, the impact of frequent changes imposed through government initiatives and the social perception of education professionals when compared to other professional roles.

In this episode of After the Bell by Connex Academy, we explore Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) with our guest, Debbie Innis Turnill. We clarify these terms: Diversity recognizes differences, Inclusion ensures respect for all despite differences, and Equality seeks fairness while acknowledging diversity. The 2010 Equality Act and the 1988 Human Rights Act form the legal framework for EDI, emphasizing fairness, respect, and autonomy, particularly for individuals with protected characteristics.
Debbie urges schools to consult their community and involve students, staff, governors, and parents in shaping their EDI approach. Challenging assumptions and promoting critical thinking are key, as demonstrated in discussions about teaching challenging texts. She emphasizes choosing inclusive language and involving those with protected characteristics in the decision-making process.
Practical activities and case studies are recommended to embed EDI into all school activities. For further insights, access our recorded webinar with Debbie. Connex Academy offers EDI courses designed for global schools. Learn more at Connex-academy.com. Don't miss our weekly After the Bell podcasts, which provide quick tips and expert insights on educational topics to fit various daily routines.

Welcome back to After the Bell, presented by Connex Academy.
At Connex, we're deeply committed to supporting schools and their staff with comprehensive training to ensure the safety and well-being of the children they serve. In this episode, we're joined by Debbie Innis Turnill, a seasoned educator and safeguarding consultant, discussing the powerful concept that behaviour is a form of communication.
We explore how unmet needs, from basic necessities to complex emotional requirements, manifest in a child's behaviour. Debbie advocates for a shift in perspective, emphasizing the importance of understanding children as individuals facing unique challenges rather than viewing them as "challenging."
We also delve into practical strategies for schools to teach, not just manage, their students, including trauma-informed practices, attachment-aware approaches, and co-regulation. Discover more insights by tuning into our recorded webinar with Debbie, and visit Connex-academy.com for information on our DfE-approved Senior Mental Health Lead training.
