Neurodiversity Celebration Week is 18-24 March 2024. It offers an ideal opportunity for pupils and staff to celebrate and learn more about neurodiversity.

Neurodiversity refers to the diversity of human minds. This includes the differences between how people think, process information, behave and communicate.  

These differences should be recognised, understood, respected, and celebrated. Every classroom is neurodiverse: every pupil will have a different way of thinking, feeling, and learning. 

The Anna Freud Mentally Healthy Schools offers a toolkit with resources to raise awareness of neurodiversity among pupils and staff. It contains teaching materials and guidance to increase understanding of neurodiversity throughout the school or college community and foster a more inclusive environment.
