Whole School Framework

neuro-affirming education and care

Staff CPD and INSET: 90-Min Interactive Masterclass (In-Person/Virtual)

Parents’ Webinar: 75-Min Virtual Evening Session + Live Q&A

  • Led by a former academic and pastoral leader in global education, and a qualified neurodiversity coach from the Health, Social Care and Employability sectors, we provide schools with practical, preventative frameworks and practices to de-escalate crises and enable students to thrive.

  • Traditional behaviour and compliance frameworks and policies can unintentionally penalise neurodivergent pupils. The result is often escalating pastoral crises, staff exhaustion, and fractured parent relationships.

STAFF CPD & INSET

  • classroom:

    Our CPD and INSET offers a neuro-affirming, social model of support for Autism, AuDHD, ADHD, and Specific Learning Differences that integrates with the needs of neurotypical students.

    We translate complex neurobiology into classroom pedagogy based on evidence-based, neuro-affirming principles and practices enabling all students to thrive.

  • pastoral & boarding:

    Traditional behaviour policies often misinterpret neurodivergent dysregulation as active defiance.

    We equip pastoral teams and boarding houseparents to decode behaviour through a neurobiological lens.

    Pastoral staff gain frontline de-escalation frameworks that prevent disciplinary crises and embed trust-based care without compromising school standards.

  • culture:

    Meaningful inclusion requires a whole-school culture where neurodivergence is anticipated, respected, and structurally supported.

    Grounded in educational experience, neurodiversity expertise, and lived experience, our training establishes a shared language that reduces conflict and protects staff and student capacity.

the school’s parent community

  • shared language:

    Equipping families with the school’s neuro-affirming framework establishes a consistent, shared language between home and school.

    We provide neuro-affirming webinars for your parent community to ensure neuro-affirming cultures are embedded at home. Mutual understanding builds trust, reduces anxiety, and improves outcomes.

  • parenting capacity:

    Our webinars help parents translate complex neurobiology into everyday family life, addressing the ‘why’ behind distressed behaviour. We cover topics like demand avoidance, declarative language, rejection sensitivity, sensory needs, and neuro-affirming boundaries.

    Parents can replace compliance-based discipline with evidence-based, attuned support that fosters psychological safety at home.

  • conflict resolution:

    Parental anxiety can lead to urgent emails, escalating demands, and formal complaints that drain leadership and management capacity.

    Our structured, expert-led spaces for families unpacks the realities of Autism, ADHD and Learning Differences with professionals who understand the challenges. Addressing parental distress collaboratively builds cohesion and trust between parents and schools.

neuro-affirming tutors

  • skilled tutors:

    Training in neurodivergence for subject-expert tutors equips them with knowledge and tools to more effectively support Autism, AuDHD, ADHD, and/or SpLDs. ‍ ‍

    Our CPD provides actionable, evidence-based approaches - including micro-tasking, interest-based framing, and dopamine-pairing - to support executive dysfunction, working memory, or sensory overwhelm..

  • engagement:

    Emotionally Based School Avoidance (EBSA), exam anxiety, or masking burnout, can trigger sympathetic nervous system responses, compounding learning resistance.

    We train tutors in low-demand, psychologically safe learning, prioritising nervous system regulation and person-centred, attuned approaches for neurodivergent students.

  • parent support:

    Helping parents to better understand the the social and educational impacts of neurodivergence on their children will establishes your agency as a trusted leader in neuro-affirming education.

    Through tutor CPD, complex-case consultations, and co-branded parent masterclasses, we help prevent placement breakdowns, maximise client retention, and improve outcomes.

psychoeducation for parents of tutees

  • alignment:

    If a tutor fosters psychological safety but high-pressure demands continue at home, progress can stall.

    Our psychoeducation webinars help parents and carers to embed neuro-affirming principles and practices at home, creating a joined-up approach to learning and better outcomes for Autistic, AuDHD, ADHD, and SpLD profiles.

  • parent anxiety:

    During academic crisis, parents’ anxiety can project onto the student and tutor.

    Parents will learn to recognise that their child's procrastination or task-avoidance is not a character flaw, but the result of neurobiology and the nervous system. They learn to prioritise emotional regulation over rigid compliance, enabling tutors to work with regulated students.

  • brand quality:

    In a crowded tutoring market, whole family support distinguishes your agency as a forward-thinking market leader.

    Specialist parent psychoeducation demonstrates that you invest in long-term pupil wellbeing, not just transactional, hourly exam prep. This builds client trust, prevents placement breakdowns, and drives long-term retention.
