Prepare to be inspired! Angela Cummins (@specialedteacherireland) is on the show this week, and we're excited. Angela is as experienced as it gets when it comes to teaching in an autism class, having begun 27 years ago. We chat to her about her goals at the start of the year and beyond, the challenges faced by teachers and SNAs, and what the school community can do to support our colleagues in autism classes.

This is the first of a number of episodes this season with a focus on neurodiversity in our schools. Make sure to follow us @thatllteachyoupodcast on Instagram and Tiktok to see what's coming next.

Imagine starting Junior Infants for the the first time. Imagine moving from 6th class to secondary school. These might be the two biggest transitions in our educational lives, and we are joined by fan favourite Tina (@teacherofdotes) to discuss these, and indeed all the transitions teachers and students face. Whether it's moving class or simply moving from one lesson to another, transitions are a big part of everyone's day in school. We also have a That'll Teach You exclusive, where Hugh reveals a pretty big transition of his own.

Come back next week for our last episode of Season 2 with Peace Chukwurah (@muinteoirchukwurah) before we break for the holidays.
