SUMMARY:Re-filling their cup: Responding to the early signs of burnout in neurodivergent girls and gender non-conforming young people at mainstream school by making home a restorative space
DESCRIPTION:Understand the early signs of school burnout in neurodivergent girls\n\n\nAn affirming awareness session centred on the lived experience of adults and run by NeonDaisy’s neurodivergent mentors. Explores how and why neurodivergent girls often feel distressed at school for a long time before it surfaces seemingly out of nowhere as burnout. What this can feel like inside\, and the subtle early signs. Tips to help offset the depleting effect of school distress at home by: replenishing their self-esteem\, sense of identity and autonomy; building their self-advocacy and boundary-setting skills; and how to be an affirming role model as a parent/carer\, even when things are hard. There will be a focus on young people in Year 5 to Year 8 who are still attending school to some degree\, and are not yet in burnout. \nIn this session\, you will: \n\nUnderstand why neurodivergent girls may become distressed at school.\nRecognise the early signs of school burnout.\nLearn practical ways to support wellbeing at home.\nBuild confidence in supporting self-esteem and self-advocacy.\n\nWho is this session for? \nParent carers of girls who are autistic or may be autistic. \nAbout the trainer: \nNeonDaisy provides a joyful community for neurodivergent girls and gender non-conforming young people (Daisies)\, where they have the power to shape their own life story. \nWe build an affirming world around them\, whether that’s through our in-person groups and community-created publications directly for young people\, or our work with parents & educators. \n​​​Our lived experience approach is Daisy-designed so young people feel greater belonging\, better connected and more confident as they transition into adult life. \nAbout Bristol Parent Carers: \n \nThis session is part of Bristol Parent Carers’ free programme of information sessions for parent carers of children and young people with SEND or emerging additional needs.  \nPlaces are free\, but if you’re able to make a small donation to help us continue offering free sessions to as many families as possible\, we’d be incredibly grateful.  \nTo attend this session for free you must live in Bristol (your bin will be collected by Bristol City Council)\, or your child must attend a school in the Bristol city area. You must also have a child with Special Educational Needs\, but they do not need to have a diagnosis. \nWhen you book\, we’ll ask you 3–5 quick questions related to the session topic. For example\, if you’re booking an EHCP session\, the questions will be about EHCPs. \nYour anonymous responses help Bristol Parent Carers and local partners understand families’ experiences\, identify common challenges\, and improve support and services. \n*Please note*: to attend this session for free you must live in Bristol (your bin will be collected by Bristol City Council)\, or your child must attend a school in the Bristol city area. You must also have a child with Special Educational Needs\, but they do not need to have a diagnosis.
