  • Sensory Processing: Moving Beyond Labels and Understanding Predictability
    2026/10/06

    What is sensory processing, and how can we better understand the way children respond to their environment?

    In this episode of Between Two Psychs, I’m joined by Sadie Charlton, a sensory occupational therapist, to explore sensory processing, regulation and the role predictability plays in how children experience and respond to the world around them.

    We talk about what occupational therapy actually involves and why sensory processing isn’t something that only affects neurodivergent children. Sadie explains how we all have sensory needs and how everyday choices, from turning down the radio while driving to changing into comfortable clothes after work, can be understood through a sensory lens.

    The conversation then looks at the difference between sensory processing and sensory integration, and why traditional ideas around sensory seeking and sensory avoiding may not tell the whole story. We explore how predictive processing adds another layer by helping us understand anticipation, uncertainty and how much control someone feels they have over their environment.

    Sadie also shares practical examples from working with schools, including how predictability, routine and giving children reliable ways to regulate can support participation and engagement. We discuss sensory checklists, behaviour as communication, hypervigilance and why creating supportive environments can sometimes be more useful than trying to “fix” the child.

  • Adaptive Teaching: Moving Beyond Labels to Remove Barriers to Learning
    2026/09/29

    What does adaptive teaching really mean, and how can teachers move beyond labels to understand the barriers affecting learning?

    In this episode of Between Two Psychs, I’m joined by Andrew Young, secondary school teacher, co-director of a teaching school hub and author of Adaptive Teaching. We explore what adaptive teaching means in practice and why focusing on barriers rather than labels can change how teachers understand and support pupils.

    We discuss the difference between proactive and reactive teaching, including how teachers can use assessment, hinge questions and knowledge of their pupils to identify and respond to barriers to learning.

    The conversation also explores SEND, diagnostic overshadowing, inclusive questioning, processing time and why strategies that support one child can often benefit the whole class.

    We then look at teacher autonomy, curriculum, engagement, belonging and the importance of relationships in helping pupils flourish.

  • Reflective Practice: The Skill You Need to Become a Psychologist
    2026/09/22
    What makes reflective practice different for a psychologist, and how can psychological theory change the way we understand what we see?In this episode, I explore reflective practice as a core skill in psychology. Rather than simply asking what happened, reflection involves critically examining professional experiences, assumptions and actions, and using that thinking to inform what we do next.The discussion looks at how psychologists can use theory to interrogate situations, consider different explanations and view the same experience through different psychological lenses. Using the bystander effect as an example, we explore how the presence and behaviour of others can influence whether someone intervenes when help is needed.It also reflects on an undergraduate study exploring whether shared identity might influence helping behaviour. The study compared how students and lecturers responded when someone dropped hundreds of papers near a staircase, raising questions about in-group bias, social identity theory and the role of shared identity.We then consider how this experience shaped thinking about behaviour in schools. Instead of focusing only on managing behaviour between children, the discussion explores how changing relationships, finding shared interests and recognising similarities can influence how children relate to one another.It also introduces systemic thinking and reflexivity, including the importance of recognising that psychologists are not standing outside the system they observe, but are part of it.In This Episode, We ExploreWhat reflective practice means and how it informs what we do next.Why psychologists use theory to interrogate what they are seeing.The bystander effect and the influence of other people on helping behaviour.How shared identity and in-group bias may affect whether people intervene.An undergraduate study involving students, lecturers and hundreds of dropped papers.What social identity theory can help us understand about behaviour.How shared interests and cultural heritage helped change relationships between children.Why changing relationships can sometimes change behaviour.The connection between reflective practice and reflexivity.Why This Episode MattersReflective practice is not simply about asking what went well or badly. It involves questioning experiences, considering different psychological explanations and allowing that thinking to influence future practice.As the episode explores, an undergraduate study continued to shape professional thinking years later. The important part was not just what the study found, but how the experience changed the way of thinking and eventually changed the way of practising.🎧Listen now for a discussion about reflective practice, psychological theory, shared identity, relationships and systemic thinking.I’d love to hear your thoughts:What does reflective practice mean to you?How do you use psychological theory to understand what you see?Has an experience ever changed the way you approach your practice?Sponsored by: Next Link ConsortiumNext Link Consortium is a tailored recruitment service connecting psychology and education specialists to high-impact opportunities with built-in CPD benefits.
