A small project with a big question: what happens when we design school so it can be different, safe, remarkable and truly for the young people inside it?
What school can mean
school can…
be different.
be safe.
be remarkable.
be for me.
At School Can, we start from a simple idea: young people deserve learning places that feel possible, not impossible. For some students, especially neurodivergent and twice-exceptional learners, school has been a place that feels overwhelming, unsafe or like there is no good way to show up as themselves. This project asks what becomes possible when adults listen to those experiences and design with young people instead of for them. These four lines are a reminder and a promise: school can change, and it can belong to the students it serves.

Topic: From ‘School Can’t’ to ‘School Can’: Designing cultures of belonging and possibility for twice-exceptional neurodivergent learners
In plain language, this project explores how schools can work better for brilliant, neurodivergent kids who don’t fit the usual boxes.
