Myth Busting IEB Accommodations with Dr. Claire Yorke
This podcast is an in-depth and fascinating conversation with educational psychologist Dr. Claire Yorke on accommodations within the IEB (Independent Examinations Board).
We delve into what accommodations are available, what they are used for, and how they are applied to help learners achieve their best academic potential.
Claire Yorke has a longstanding relationship with Edu Inc (Education Incorporated) and has helped many of our students with the assessments and applications for accommodations. We value her professionalism, and we thought it would be great for her to share her insights and understanding of this sometimes daunting process.

Educating for the Inevitable
From Hype to Hope Beyond the AI Horizon
Dr Benjamin Rosman (Professor in AI and Robotics - Wits)
Episode Description In our latest session, Jacqueline Aitchison (Education Incorporated) sat down with Prof. Benjamin Rosman (University of the Witwatersrand University) for a compelling conversation on the implications of artificial intelligence.
Judging by the strong attendance and online engagement, it’s clear this topic struck a chord with our community. The occasional gasps and audible “yikes” from the audience spoke volumes—this was more than just an academic discussion; it was eye-opening.
One of the key takeaways was just how much we might be underestimating AI’s potential to eventually replace—and even surpass—human capabilities. Yet, on a more optimistic note, we may also be undervaluing the ethical frameworks emerging within AI systems themselves. Encouragingly, these systems can, in some cases, demonstrate ethical decision-making—even when humans attempt to exploit them.
