Creating and Embedding Neurodiversity - Affirming Cultures in the Early Years with Cheryl Warren
12th November 4pm
The webinar will begin with exploring how we can move away from a “what’s wrong” mindset towards one of genuine curiosity and celebration of difference. It’s about shifting from seeing behaviours as problems to seeing them as communication, a child’s way of showing us how they’re experiencing the world. This webinar will be filled with practical strategies, true lived experiences, opportunities for reflection and snippets from Cheryl’s debut book, Neurodiversity in Early Years.
