Inclusive Design for Neurodiverse Learners

Yay! Our very own Andrea Greer will present at our upcoming PLN webinar for RTLB on Thursday, 27 August at 8:30 AM, exploring neuroception, responsive and reactive practice, shame responses, and opportunities for healing.

Andrea will unpack how these ideas can help us understand the ways tamariki experience safety, develop a sense of self, and make sense of their experiences through the stories of safety we help create around them.

Together, we’ll explore how behaviours can be understood as responses rather than problems, how shame can impact a child’s developing sense of self, and how moments of challenge can become opportunities for healing and connection. Most importantly, what does this mean for kaiako?

How can we create environments, relationships and everyday interactions that help tamariki develop a stronger sense of self, experience safety, and build new stories of safety?

Join Andrea Greer and the team to explore neuroception, shame, and responsive practice, and how understanding behaviour as a response can help kaiako create safety, connection, and opportunities for healing for tamariki.

Worth a watch  = Great insights from this webinar on supporting neurodiverse learners in practical classroom spaces. It was packed with practical strategies, thoughtful ideas, and inclusive approaches that can help create learning environments where every student has the opportunity to thrive. A valuable reminder of the importance of understanding, flexibility, and designing classrooms that recognise and support diverse learning needs.
