What "Masking" Behaviour Means - And Why It Matters In The Classroom

Season 1 Episode 87 Published 3 years, 3 months ago
Description

Some children change their behaviour and 'mask' their true needs all day long at school. Over time, this can be exhausting and may even lead to burnout!

In this School Behaviour Secrets podcast, we interview parent and educator advisor Amanda Sokell. Together, we discuss what masking looks like in young people and why listening to children's behaviour (not just their words) is vital when trying to support their emotional wellbeing.
