Supporting Neurodivergent Students in the Classroom
Supporting Neurodivergent Students in the Classroom
THE NEED: One in five students in Australian classrooms requires disability-related support, yet only 4.7% of teachers have formal training to meet these needs. Around 15-20% of students are neurodivergent (e.g. autism, ADHD), meaning many children in our classrooms are at risk of being misunderstood or excluded.
​By merging clinical and educational expertise, the Minds in Bloom Learning keynote/workshop series will equip teachers and early childhood educators with practical, evidence-informed strategies to support every learner. Together, we can ensure that your school continues to lead the way in creating classrooms where every child feels safe, seen, supported, and stretched.
​
Our series of workshops are tailored to the unique needs of your students and teachers, with topics including:
​
Setting Up Safe & Supporting Spaces for Neurodivergent Children
Supporting Neurodivergent Students to Engage in Learning (can be Literacy or Numeracy focused)
