Training and Workshops
Understanding neurodivergence is about more than learning a list of characteristics. It is about listening to lived experiences, questioning assumptions and exploring the everyday changes that can make environments more accessible and inclusive.
ReflectiveMe delivers engaging, neurodiversity-affirming training and workshops for education professionals, parents, carers and organisations. Our sessions combine professional experience, lived understanding and practical discussion.
Training for schools and education professionals
We work with schools to develop staff understanding and confidence in supporting neurodivergent children and young people.
Rather than relying on abstract theory alone, we use relatable examples, reflection and opportunities to consider what inclusive practice can look like in real situations.
Potential training themes
- Understanding ADHD and how it may present in the school environment
- Neurodiversity-affirming approaches to communication, behaviour and inclusion
- Executive functioning in everyday school life
- Emotional regulation, overwhelm and support needs
- Recognising masking and the difference between presentation and experience
- Understanding anxiety and barriers to school attendance
- Adapting environments and expectations to better support individual needs
Parent and carer workshops
Parenting a neurodivergent child or young person can involve navigating new information, conflicting advice and systems that may feel difficult to access. Our workshops offer a supportive, non-judgemental space to develop understanding, share perspectives and explore strategies that can be adapted to individual families.
Example parent workshop themes
• Understanding neurodiversity and how it may present in your child
• Exploring executive functioning in everyday life
• Supporting emotional regulation and recognising overwhelm
• Understanding anxiety and emotionally based barriers to school attendance
• Building on strengths and supporting communication at home
Workshops for organisations
We also work with organisations seeking to develop awareness of neurodivergence and more inclusive working practices. Sessions can be designed around the needs of your team and may explore communication, everyday barriers, strengths and reasonable approaches to inclusion.
