In this episode with Damien Porter, we dive into the power of inclusive education and the lived experience of raising a family where disability is part of daily life. Damien shares heartfelt stories and practical insights on how schools—and society—can better support, empower, and include people with disabilities. Here are the key takeaways from your podcast episode with Damien: Inclusive Education Builds Belonging: Mainstream schooling helps students with disabilities develop social skills, confidence, and equality by learning alongside their peers. Support Staff Make a Big Difference: Student Support Officers (SSOs) are crucial in mainstream settings to assist with non-academic needs, enabling students to participate independently. Lived Experience Should Shape Systems: Involving people with disabilities in school planning, accessibility design, and policy-making leads to more practical and inclusive outcomes. Empathy Grows Through Curiosity: Damien encourages open dialogue—letting children ask honest questions about disability helps normalise difference and build empathy early. Self-Worth is Key to Post-School Success: Young people with disabilities need to believe in their value and potential to thrive in employment—not be limited by outdated assumptions. Never Assume—Always AskMany assumptions are made about people with disabilities; real understanding only comes from asking, listening, and learning from lived experience.
