This session aims to bring together wellbeing staff from independent schools to collaboratively explore the tensions and opportunities in creating neurodiversity-affirming school environments, while operating within the realities of school policy, tradition, and compliance frameworks.
SESSION 2 GOAL: Strategy session:
To articulate what the official strategy should/could look like and what we can recommend to upper leadership
Neurodiversity-affirming practice is increasingly recognised as best practice in supporting student wellbeing, engagement, and inclusion. However, educators and wellbeing leaders often face systemic, cultural, or policy-based barriers to implementation, especially within independent school settings where expectations from leadership, parents, and governing bodies may not always align with inclusive or progressive models.
Who Should Attend
Principals or Heads of Campus
Heads of Wellbeing and Pastoral Care
Learning Support Coordinators / Heads of Inclusive Education
Deputy Principals (Student Development / Wellbeing)
Other professionals leading inclusion or student support
No fee.
Afternoon tea provided.
