This week in school we are celebrating Neurodiversity Acceptance Week.
This year’s theme is ‘colour’, so we are continuing that theme and inviting all pupils and staff to come into school wearing as much colour as they feel comfortable with tomorrow (Tuesday 21st May).
Children in KS1 and KS2 will be taking part in a Neurodiversity assembly tomorrow to celebrate strengths and differences. You can find the PowerPoint I will be using on our SEN page on the website: https://brookburn.manchester.sch.uk/our-school/special-educational-needs/, in case your children ask questions or want to discuss anything further with you:
Here are some other useful resources should you have questions ro want to find out more:
