✓ Suitable for mainstream, special, and alternative settings

Week 1 | Seeing the Learner, Not the Label
£38.00
One time

This session introduces a needs-led approach to inclusion, moving beyond labels to understand how learners experience barriers to learning. Participants explore adaptive teaching and Universal Design for Learning (UDL), and consider practical strategies that support access in everyday classroom practice.


✓ Lifetime access to Week 1 course content
✓ Understanding learner needs beyond diagnostic labels
✓ Introduction to adaptive teaching and UDL principles
✓ Practical strategies for reading, writing, and instructions
✓ Tools to identify and reduce hidden barriers to learning
Week 2 | Managing Focus, Memory & Executive Function
£38.00
One time

This session focuses on the cognitive skills that underpin engagement, organisation, and independence. Participants develop an understanding of executive function and learn practical strategies to support focus, working memory, and self-regulation in everyday classroom practice.


✓ Lifetime access to Week 2 course content
✓ Clear understanding of executive function and its impact on
✓ Practical strategies to reduce cognitive load
✓ Visual routines, chunking, and sequencing supports
✓ Approaches that build independence over time
Week 3 | Reducing Overload for Sensory & Processing Needs
£38.00
One time

This session explores how sensory and cognitive overload can prevent learning before it begins. Participants examine sensory processing differences and learn how to reduce unnecessary load through environmental adjustments, pacing, and inclusive instructional design.


✓ Lifetime access to Week 3 course content
✓ Understanding sensory and processing differences
✓ Strategies to reduce overload in learning environments
✓ Sensory-aware approaches to instruction and pacing
✓ Use of assistive technology within a UDL framework
Week 4 | Making It Work: Planning, Adapting & Embedding
£38.00
One time

This final session focuses on embedding inclusive practice into everyday planning. Participants learn how to use UDL principles to plan flexibly, deploy support strategically, and sustain adaptive teaching without lowering expectations.


✓ Lifetime access to Week 4 course content
✓ Inclusive planning using UDL principles
✓ Strategies to build independence, not reliance
✓ Realistic classroom implementation examples
✓ Reflection and action planning to support impact

What You'll Learn

You’ll learn how to move beyond diagnoses and develop a clear, needs-led understanding of learners. The course helps you recognise hidden barriers and focus on strengths, allowing you to plan more inclusively from the start.

See the Learner, Not the Label

You’ll explore how attention, working memory, and executive function affect learning and behaviour. Through practical strategies, you’ll learn how to reduce cognitive load, support organisation, and help learners become more independent over time.

Support Focus, Memory & Independence

You’ll gain a deeper understanding of sensory and processing needs and how learning environments can unintentionally block access. The course shows how small, intentional changes to instructions, pacing, and environments can make learning accessible without lowering expectations.
