Neurodiversity

We at RPNS strive to create an inclusive community for all. As part of this we value neurodiversity, honouring and appreciating the gifts and strengths that each person brings to our community.

Recently in school we hosted our Celebrating Neurodiversity Week during which each class learnt, researched, discussed and reflected on topics relating to neurodiversity and neurodivergence. Some very interesting facts were learnt and shared. Teachers were impressed with what the children discovered or indeed already knew!

Below are some resources, articles, websites and names of organisations with information that may be of interest to parents and our wider community. We hope they are helpful.
