Explore how neurodiversity-affirming approaches can be applied effectively within educational environments to support positive outcomes for neurodivergent children and young people. This engaging professional development event focuses on creating inclusive, strengths-based practices that recognise and value neurological differences rather than viewing them through a deficit-based lens.
Participants will examine the principles of neurodiversity-affirming practice and learn how these can be integrated into assessment, intervention, collaboration, and everyday interactions within schools and educational settings. Through practical examples, case discussions, and reflective activities, attendees will gain strategies for supporting autistic students, students with ADHD, and other neurodivergent learners in ways that promote wellbeing, autonomy, and participation.
The session is designed for clinicians, educators, school-based professionals, and allied health practitioners who are committed to fostering inclusive and supportive learning environments.
