Neurodiversity and the sensory environment

06 July 2023 | 1.00pm-3.00pm | Online

Many neurodivergent people relate to their sensory environment in different ways than their neurotypical peers. The sensory world is an important factor for any learning environment, but even more so for neurodivergent families.Experts Three Sisters Consultancy will share tools and resources that promote an environment to respond to diverse needs of your learners and audiences 

In this training you will learn more about:

  • What neurodiversity means and who is affected 
  • Sensory differences - and how they relate to our 8 (yes 8!) senses 
  • How to map your own sensory environment 
  • Tools and supports to make reasonable adjustments

Feedback from attendees at other training delivered by Three Sisters Consultancy

Fantastic session. This should be offered to as many people as possible. Corrie was brilliant at delivering the course and her knowledge is amazing! 

 

I have a better understanding of how the children are feeling and see the world. I feel more confident to support this with variety of strategies. 

 

This session was incredibly helpful and informative. It provided real-life examples and explained the topics in-depth. The delivery was excellent and totally accessible and focused on ensuring our understanding of the topic. Overall, an incredible session.
