Neurotype Workshops
In these workshops, you will find comprehensive, neuro-affirming education that help you understand the A to Zs of your child's diagnosis, from how autism and ADHD came to be, to how their brain is wired, to how this impacts the way they see the world, and importantly, their unique pathway of supports.
​
Supporting Autistic/ADHDer Students
A common story I get told is that even though we're seeing more and more autistic and ADHDer children in the classroom, these concepts weren't covered in your degree. You do a lot of research in your own time and respond well to what parents tell you about their child, but you always feel like it's not enough.
​
We'll be covering:
-
What is autism and ADHD? including covering neuroscience and the different presentations
-
How these neurotypes think and process the world
-
Accommodations you can put into place to be an inclusive teacher
​
In the next 70 minutes? You'll emerge more confident than before in meeting their needs. In understanding our neurodivergent students. In truly seeing them, and then designing a curriculum that is inclusive.

Sandhya has created a range of resources for easy, accessible information for you. Sometimes, the less time you spend engaging with an item, the less we take the information on and have it truly inform practice, but if you benefit from an easy visual and want the information to marinate away, then this section is for you.
