Deficit thinking is hurting students. Here's the fix | Byron McClure

In this conversation, I sit down with school psychologist, speaker, and author *Byron McClure* to explore a powerful shift that needs to happen in education: moving away from deficit thinking and toward a focus on what’s strong in students. We dive into how this mindset impacts student success, educator well-being, and school culture and why it’s time to rethink how we support learners. *Byron’s new book, *Shift to What’s Strong*, is now available!* If you're an educator, school psychologist, or leader looking to create more strength-based systems, this is a must-read. --- 🔗 *Connect with Byron McClure:* • Follow on LinkedIn:   / byron-mcclure-0a20a837   • Follow on Instagram:   / bmcclure6   • Follow on TikTok:   / schoolpsychlifedrb   • What’s Strong Newsletter & Substack: http://byronmcclure.substack.com • Byron McClure Website: http://byronmcclure.com --- ⭐ *Strength-Based Resources (GOLD!)* Check out Byron’s shared resource hub for practical tools, strategies, and ideas you can start using right away. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1A... --- 💡 If this conversation resonated with you, consider liking, subscribing, and sharing with a colleague who needs to hear this.
