  1. Why Your Child's Behaviour Is Communication, Not Misbehaviour

    Why Your Child's Behaviour Is Communication, Not Misbehaviour

    🎙️ Why do children behave the way they do? What if the behaviour we often see as "challenging" is actually a child communicating an unmet need? In this episode of RECAP The Podcast, I'm joined by Johanna Simmons - play therapist, educator, author, and neuroscience-informed parenting expert - to explore how understanding children's nervous systems can completely change the way we respond to behaviour. Drawing on decades of experience in play therapy, attachment, and neuroscience, Johanna explains why safety, connection, and co-regulation are at the heart of healthy child development, and why behaviour should always be viewed as communication rather than something to simply manage or stop. 💡 In this episode, we discuss: ✨ Why children's behaviour is communication - not manipulation ✨ What co-regulation really means (and why children borrow our nervous system) ✨ The importance of emotional safety before learning can happen ✨ How play helps children process emotions and experiences ✨ Understanding the difference between dysregulation and "defiance" ✨ How neuroscience can help parents respond differently to challenging behaviour ✨ Why repair after difficult moments matters more than being a "perfect" parent ✨ Practical ways parents can build stronger, calmer relationships with their children ❤️ Why this matters Parenting can feel overwhelming, especially during moments of dysregulation, meltdowns, or challenging behaviour. But when we begin to understand what's happening beneath the behaviour, everything starts to change. This conversation offers a compassionate, evidence-informed approach that reminds us children don't need perfect parents - they need adults who are willing to stay curious, repair relationships, and create emotional safety. Whether you're a parent, educator, therapist, or simply interested in child development, this episode is packed with practical insights you'll want to come back to. 🎧 Listen now on: Spotify Apple Podcasts YouTube All major podcast platforms 👉 Don't forget to subscribe so you never miss an episode. 🔗 Connect & Follow Follow RECAP for evidence-informed, accessible content for families and professionals.

  2. Can Museums Help Children Who Struggle With School? | SEND, EBSA & Inclusive Learning

    Can Museums Help Children Who Struggle With School? | SEND, EBSA & Inclusive Learning

    🎙️ Can Museums Help Children Who Struggle With School? When we think about learning, museums aren't always the first places that come to mind. But what if museums could play a powerful role in helping children who feel disconnected from education? In this episode of RECAP The Podcast, I'm joined by Leslie Palanker, Learning Coordinator at North East Museums, to explore how museums are creating inclusive, sensory-rich learning experiences for children, young people, and families - including those experiencing SEND, anxiety, and emotionally based school avoidance (EBSA). From sensory storytelling and accessible learning to innovative programmes supporting young people outside traditional education settings, this conversation challenges what learning can look like and where it can happen. 💡 In this episode, we discuss: ✨ What museum learning actually looks like today ✨ Why learning should be active, engaging, and curiosity-led ✨ How sensory experiences can transform access to learning ✨ Supporting children and young people with SEND through inclusive museum programmes ✨ The pioneering work being done with families experiencing EBSA (Emotionally Based School Avoidance) ✨ Why listening to communities is essential when designing learning opportunities ✨ The unexpected benefits museums can offer for confidence, belonging, wellbeing, and connection ✨ How cultural spaces can help reduce barriers to engagement and learning ❤️ Why this matters Not every child learns best in the same way. For some young people, traditional educational environments can feel overwhelming, inaccessible, or difficult to navigate. Leslie's work highlights the importance of creating alternative spaces where children can feel safe, curious, valued, and included. This episode is a powerful reminder that learning doesn't only happen in classrooms. It can happen through art, history, storytelling, sensory experiences, conversation, and community. When we widen our understanding of what learning looks like, we create more opportunities for every child to thrive. 🎧 Listen now - available on: Spotify Apple Podcasts YouTube All major podcast platforms 👉 Don't forget to subscribe so you never miss an episode 🔗 Connect & Follow Follow RECAP for evidence-informed, accessible content for families and professionals: Instagram: @recap.ltd Website: https://www.recapinfo.co.uk Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/recapinfo/newsletter Links from Leslie: South shields Museum and Art Gallery: https://www.northeastmuseums.org.uk/southshieldsmuseum/learning Arbeia Roman Fort: https://www.northeastmuseums.org.uk/arbeia/learning Sensory Journeys: https://www.northeastmuseums.org.uk/southshieldsmuseum/learning/sensory-journeys 💬 Join the conversation Have you ever visited a museum that inspired curiosity or sparked a love of learning? 👉 How can museums and cultural spaces better support children and young people? 👉 What role do you think alternative learning environments should play in education?

  3. Why Some Children Struggle to Listen (Even When Their Hearing Is Normal)

    Why Some Children Struggle to Listen (Even When Their Hearing Is Normal)

    🎙️ Is Your Child Really Hearing? The Hidden Difference Between Hearing, Listening & Processing Sounds When we think about hearing difficulties, we often assume it's simply a question of whether a child can hear or not. But what if the real challenge is something much more complex? In this episode of RECAP The Podcast, I'm joined by Dr Josephine Marriage, Clinical Scientist in Paediatric Audiology and Director of CHEAR, to explore how children develop hearing and listening skills, why some difficulties can be missed, and what every parent should know about supporting communication in the early years. From hearing assessments and auditory processing to sensory sensitivities and screen time, this conversation offers a fascinating insight into how children experience sound and why hearing is about far more than just the ears. 💡 In this episode, we discuss: ✨ The difference between hearing, listening, and auditory processing ✨ Why some children struggle even when hearing tests appear normal ✨ How hearing difficulties can affect speech, language, learning, and behaviour ✨ The impact of fluctuating hearing conditions such as glue ear ✨ Why the first two years of life are so important for developing listening skills ✨ What behavioural hearing assessments involve and how they differ from routine hearing tests ✨ Sensory processing differences, hyperacusis, and sound sensitivities ✨ The rise in children presenting with listening difficulties and the role screen time may play ✨ Hearing aids, cochlear implants, and advances in paediatric audiology ✨ How parents can feel empowered to ask questions and advocate for their child ❤️ Why this matters Communication begins long before children learn to speak. The sounds children hear, the conversations they experience, and the interactions they have in their earliest years help shape the neural pathways that support language, learning, and social connection. Understanding the difference between hearing and listening can help families recognise when a child may need support, seek help earlier, and better understand the unique ways children process the world around them. Whether you're a parent, educator, healthcare professional, or simply interested in child development, this episode offers valuable insights into a topic that affects every child's learning journey. 🎧 Listen now - available on: Spotify Apple Podcasts YouTube All major podcast platforms 👉 Don't forget to subscribe so you never miss an episode. 🔗 Connect & follow Follow RECAP for evidence-informed, accessible content for families and professionals: Instagram: @recap.ltdWebsite: https://www.recapinfo.co.uk/Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/recapinfo/newsletter Follow Dr Josephine Marriage and CHEAR: Website: https://www.chears.co.uk/Josephine's paper: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14992027.2023.2260097 💬 Join the conversation 👉 Did you know hearing and listening are different skills? 👉 Have you ever navigated hearing assessments with your child? 👉 What do you wish more parents understood about children's communication development?

  4. The Secret to Making Children LOVE Learning History

    The Secret to Making Children LOVE Learning History

    🎙️ Why History Matters More Than Ever (And How to Make Children Love Learning) History isn’t just about dates, facts, and famous names. It’s about stories. It’s about people. And perhaps most importantly, it’s about helping children understand the world around them. In this episode of RECAP The Podcast, I’m joined by Charlotte Jones, Education Officer at the Brontë Birthplace in Thornton, Bradford, to explore how immersive, hands-on history experiences can spark curiosity, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning. From Victorian laundry and child labour to the incredible story of the Brontë sisters, this conversation is packed with practical ideas for parents, educators, and home educating families looking to make learning meaningful and memorable. 💡 In this episode, we discuss: ✨ Charlotte’s journey from teenage mum to history graduate and Education Officer at the Brontë Birthplace ✨ Why history is about much more than memorising facts ✨ How immersive learning experiences help children connect emotionally with the past ✨ The power of storytelling in education ✨ Why curiosity matters more than getting every fact right ✨ How the Brontë sisters’ lives can teach children about resilience, confidence, and determination ✨ Supporting home educating families through accessible heritage learning ✨ How history develops critical thinking skills and helps children question information ✨ The importance of fostering a love of learning rather than focusing solely on outcomes ✨ Practical ways parents can make history engaging, even if they don’t feel confident teaching it ❤️ Why this matters Children are naturally curious. When learning is brought to life through stories, experiences, and real-world connections, it becomes something they want to explore rather than something they feel they have to do. Whether it's visiting historic sites, researching family history, or simply asking questions about the world around them, history can help children build confidence, empathy, critical thinking skills, and a genuine love of learning. This episode is a powerful reminder that education isn't just about remembering information — it's about inspiring curiosity that lasts a lifetime. 🎧 Listen now – available on: Spotify Apple Podcasts YouTube All major podcast platforms 👉 Don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss an episode 🔗 Connect & Follow Follow RECAP for evidence-informed, accessible content for families and professionals: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/recap.ltd Website: https://www.recapinfo.co.uk Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/recapinfo/newsletter Follow the Brontë Birthplace: Website: https://brontebirthplace.com/ 💬 Join the conversation What sparked your love of learning? 👉 Was there a teacher, trip, museum, or experience that inspired you? 👉 How do you encourage curiosity in your children? 👉 Do you think learning is most powerful when children can experience it for themselves?

    From Speech Delay to the Stage: One Dad’s Mission to Help Children Find Their Voice

    🎙️ How Can We Help Children Find Their Voice? When a child struggles to communicate, the impact reaches far beyond words. n this episode of RECAP The Podcast, I’m joined by Rishi, founder of The Speech Heroes, to discuss speech and language delay, developmental language disorder (DLD), parenting, creativity, and why every child deserves to be seen for their strengths rather than their challenges. Inspired by his son Aryan’s journey with speech and language delay, Rishi shares how frustration, determination, music, and storytelling led him to create The Speech Heroes - a movement designed to help children build confidence, resilience, and belief in their own abilities. Together, we explore the realities of navigating speech and language difficulties as a family, the gaps many parents experience when seeking support, and how creativity can unlock communication in ways traditional approaches sometimes miss. 💡 In this episode, we discuss: ✨ What speech and language delay can look like for children and families ✨ The emotional impact of communication difficulties on parents and children ✨ Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) and why awareness matters ✨ How music, creativity and storytelling helped one child find his voice ✨ Why strengths-based approaches matter more than deficit-focused narratives ✨ Supporting children who communicate in different ways ✨ The importance of parent advocacy and trusting your instincts ✨ The challenges families can face accessing speech and language support ✨ Why communication is about more than spoken words ✨ Building confidence, resilience and self-belief in children ❤️ Why this matters Around two million children in the UK experience speech, language and communication difficulties. Yet many families describe feeling overwhelmed, isolated, and unsure where to turn for support. This conversation is a powerful reminder that communication comes in many forms, that every child has strengths worth celebrating, and that creativity, connection, and understanding can make a profound difference. Whether you're a parent, educator, SEND professional, speech and language practitioner, or simply someone who wants to better understand children's communication needs, this episode offers insight, hope, and practical reflection. 🎧 Listen now, available on: Spotify Apple Podcasts YouTube All major podcast platforms 🔗 Connect & Follow Follow RECAP for evidence-informed, accessible content for families and professionals: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/recap.ltd Website: https://www.recapinfo.co.uk Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/recapinfo/newsletter Follow The Speech Heroes: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_thespeechheroes/ The Book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1036934500 Speech Bound - the RAP!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3quja6Ekv2k 💬 Join the Conversation How can we better support children with speech and language difficulties? 👉 Have you experienced speech delay or DLD in your family? 👉 What strategies have helped your child communicate? 👉 Do you think enough support exists for families navigating speech and language needs?

  6. The Problem With School Sensory Rooms Nobody Talks About

    The Problem With School Sensory Rooms Nobody Talks About

    🎙️ Are We Getting Sensory Rooms Wrong? We talk a lot about inclusion in education…but what if some of the very spaces designed to support neurodivergent students aren’t always meeting their needs? n this episode of RECAP The Podcast, I’m joined by Kylie Melville - PhD researcher and former SEND educator - to explore multi-sensory environments in schools, sensory safety, and why lived experience must be at the heart of inclusive practice. Together, we unpack what sensory environments actually are, why they matter, and the challenges schools face when trying to create spaces that genuinely support neurodivergent students. 💡 In this episode, we discuss: What multi-sensory environments really are (and why they’re more than just “sensory rooms”) Why sensory safety is essential for learning The challenges schools face when designing and using sensory spaces Why “one-size-fits-all” sensory rooms don’t work The importance of student voice and lived experience in research and practice How some sensory spaces risk becoming tokenistic or even harmful Supporting neurodivergent students in ways that are meaningful and individualised Why schools need more evidence-informed guidance around sensory inclusion ❤️ Why this matters No child can fully engage in learning if they don’t first feel safe. As awareness of neurodiversity grows, more schools are introducing sensory spaces - but without clear guidance, training, or meaningful student input, these environments risk missing the mark. This conversation offers an honest and thoughtful look at what genuine sensory inclusion can look like and why listening to neurodivergent voices is essential if we want schools to become places where every child can thrive. 🎧 Listen now: available on: Spotify Apple Podcasts All major platforms 👉 Don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss an episode 🔗 Connect & follow Follow RECAP for evidence-informed, accessible content for families and professionals: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/recap.ltd/ Website: https://www.recapinfo.co.uk/ Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/recapinfo/newsletter-landing-page?fbclid=IwY2xjawRLKjpleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFnVjc0UXhqZ3k3ZW93ZHFLc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHnySw4NxuZ6Zx557mjJ-crfiCKhoLmykbWyxcAlwJGGJnklGT2BA0yXpefWk_aem_NGv834rxesL31J-gzSY8XQ Follow & Connect with Kyleigh: https://edwebprofiles.ed.ac.uk/profile/kyleigh-melvillehttps://multisensoryenvironmentsneurodiversity.wordpress.com/ 💬 Join the conversation Do you think schools are doing enough to support sensory needs? 👉 What does meaningful inclusion look like to you? 👉 Have you seen sensory spaces used well in schools?

    School Isn’t Working for Every Child… So What’s the Alternative?

    🎙️ School Isn’t Working for Every Child… So What’s the Alternative?We often think of school as the only way…but what if it doesn’t work for every child?In this episode of RECAP The Podcast, I’m joined by Nirvana Yarger -educator and founder of The Community Classroom - to explore the reality of home education, alternative learning, and what happens when families choose a different path.Together, we unpack what home education actually looks like day-to-day, why more families are exploring it, and how personalised, flexible learning can better meet the needs of some children.💡 In this episode, we discuss:What home education really is (and what it isn’t)Why some children don’t thrive in mainstream school environmentsHow learning at home can build confidence, creativity, and independenceThe impact of COVID-19 on how families view educationWhat “alternative education” looks like in practiceThe role of community, socialisation, and group learningSupporting children with additional needs outside of schoolHow The Community Classroom is bridging the gap between structure and flexibility❤️ Why this mattersFor many families, home education isn’t a first choice - it’s a response to a system that isn’t meeting their child’s needs.But when education becomes more personalised, flexible, and responsive, children can begin to thrive in ways that weren’t possible before.This conversation offers a realistic, reassuring look at alternative education and reminds us that there is no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to learning.🎧 Listen now: available on:SpotifyApple PodcastsAll major platforms👉 Don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss an episode🔗 Connect & followFollow RECAP for evidence-informed, accessible content for families and professionals:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/recap.ltd/Website: https://www.recapinfo.co.uk/Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/recapinfo/newsletter-landing-page?fbclid=IwY2xjawRLKjpleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFnVjc0UXhqZ3k3ZW93ZHFLc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHnySw4NxuZ6Zx557mjJ-crfiCKhoLmykbWyxcAlwJGGJnklGT2BA0yXpefWk_aem_NGv834rxesL31J-gzSY8XQ Follow Nirvana:Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nirvana-yarger/💬 Join the conversationHave you ever considered home education?👉 What are your thoughts on learning outside of school?👉 Do you think education should be more flexible?Share your thoughts in the comments - we’d love to hear from you.🔍 Keywords:home education UK, alternative education, elective home education, homeschooling UK, child development, SEND education, education alternatives, learning outside school, personalised learning, parenting podcast UK, education podcast, school anxiety, flexible learning🔖 Hashtags:#HomeEducation #AlternativeEducation #HomeschoolingUK #ChildDevelopment #EducationMatters #SENDSupport #ParentingPodcast #FlexibleLearning #EducationPodcast #recapthepodcast Series 6 Ep 3

    How Children Actually Learn (And Why School Gets It Wrong!)

    🎙️ How Children Actually Learn (And Why School Gets It Wrong)We talk a lot about “learning”…but what if we’ve misunderstood it completely?In this episode of RECAP The Podcast, I’m joined by Dr. Will Zoppellini - educator, researcher, and founder of Coffee & Theory - to explore how children actually learn, and why the systems around them don’t always reflect that.From deep learning and learner agency to the limitations of standardised testing, this is a thought-provoking conversation that challenges some of the most accepted ideas in education.💡 In this episode, we discuss:Why children’s learning is non-linear, complex, and deeply influenced by emotion and identityThe problem with focusing on outcomes and standardised testingWhat deep learning really means and why it goes beyond memorisationWhy learner agency may be one of the biggest (and most overlooked) issues in educationHow current systems can unintentionally limit curiosity and confidenceThe importance of giving children space to explore, think, and even failWhy copying education systems from other countries doesn’t always work❤️ Why this mattersHow children experience learning shapes how they see themselves - their confidence, their curiosity, and their belief in what they’re capable of.But when learning becomes about outcomes, labels, and ticking boxes, we risk losing something far more important: a genuine love of learning.This conversation invites us to rethink what learning really is and how we can better support children to develop the skills they’ll actually need for the future.🎧 Listen now - available on:SpotifyApple PodcastsAll major platforms👉 Don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss an episode🔗 Connect & followFollow RECAP for evidence-informed, accessible content for families and professionals:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/recap.ltd/Website: https://www.recapinfo.co.uk/Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/recapinfo/newsletter-landing-page?fbclid=IwY2xjawRLKjpleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFnVjc0UXhqZ3k3ZW93ZHFLc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHnySw4NxuZ6Zx557mjJ-crfiCKhoLmykbWyxcAlwJGGJnklGT2BA0yXpefWk_aem_NGv834rxesL31J-gzSY8XQ Follow Will:Will works with schools, educational organisations, and community groups through research, professional development, workshops, and collaborative projects.
