Listen "Essential SEN Tips for Scouts"
Episode Synopsis
In this inspiring interview, I'm joined in the Scouting Shed with Leigh Porter, a dedicated Scout Leader from Fulham, who shares his passion for supporting Scouts with Special Educational Needs (SEN). As someone with ADHD, Leigh understands the challenges SEN children face and has made it his mission to help Scout leaders create more inclusive and engaging experiences for all.
Leigh offers practical advice for running Scout evenings, including:
Making activities hands-on and practical to keep Scouts engaged.
Taking time out with overwhelmed Scouts—a simple moment over a mug of hot chocolate can make all the difference.
Recognizing the value of tailored approaches to learning and interaction in Scouting.
Whether you're a Scout leader, parent, or educator, you'll find Leigh's tips and strategies both helpful and inspiring. Let’s create Scouting environments where every child can thrive!
