Gold Coast - Supporting Autistic and ADHD Students

hero

 

Neurodivergent consultant, teacher, speaker and parent, Christina Keeble has a passion for supporting and educating from the lived perspective.

A passionate advocate for inclusive education with over twenty years of experience in the field of education, Christina has dedicated her career to supporting neurodivergent students. Christina brings a wealth of knowledge and practical insights to her presentations, helping educators understand the importance of embracing neurodiversity and implementing inclusive practices in the classroom.

This workshop is designed to equip educators with the necessary tools and understanding to foster inclusivity for neurodivergent students. Participants will gain insights into what inclusion truly looks like for Autistic, ADHD, and PDA students, and those with extreme anxiety, and oppositional tendencies. By embracing the Neurodiversity Framework and delving into neuro-affirming approaches, attendees will learn why traditional behaviorist methods may not be effective and discover evidence-backed alternatives.

Educators will learn practical strategies for implementation in their classrooms. They will explore the concept of reasonable accommodations, develop a deeper understanding of neuro-differences, and learn how to cultivate a supportive classroom culture while optimising the learning environment.

Through activities and real-life examples, participants will bridge the gap between theory and practice, gaining valuable insights into turning inclusive theories into actionable strategies.
