Celebrating neurodiversity and being inclusive
*Online Webinar* – Fill the form below to register for the event.
Join us for an open panel event during Neurodiversity Celebration week 2022.
According to the UK Department of Education, 15% of students in the United Kingdom have a learning difference (a statistic that is likely to be overly conservative), and in the US this numbers increases to around 1 in 5 people having a learning difference. There is still a significant societal stigma and many misconceptions about learning and thinking differences that also create barriers for SEN students to have equal access to education and therefore access to the same employment that others might have.
In this event we will hear a range of experiences and perspectives and explore what we can all do at individual, leadership, and organisational levels to break down stigma and misconceptions. We will be joined by several inspirational speakers who have first-hand experience of learning differences or who are working to make the world a more inclusive space for those who are neurodivergent.
