Leading Inclusive Communities
How can embracing neurodiversity shape more inclusive, innovative, and future ready schools?
This comprehensive one-day event will explore the evolving understanding of neurodiversity and its critical role in creating inclusive, future-ready school communities. Through keynotes, dynamic workshops, and interactive case studies, participants will gain tools and strategies to effectively support neurodivergent students, fostering environments where all learners can thrive.
Participants will engage in discussions and hands-on activities designed to shift perspectives on neurodivergence from silence and stigma to visibility, advocacy, and celebration. The program will cover practical strategies for inclusion, including effective communication with families, creating sensory-friendly classrooms, and designing strengths-based pathways for student support.
By the end of the event participants will have a deeper understanding of neurodiversity affirming practices and be equipped with practical tools to implement them in their schools.
