Embracing neurodiversity in PE

This training session explores how neurodivergence may show up in physical education. It aims to give sports coaches, teachers and support staff the tools to empower and include all children in school PE.

By the end of this session, you should:

  • Understand how each neurodivergent condition may present in PE lessons.

  • Recognise individual differences in children’s strengths and challenges.

  • Know how to empower, inspire and motivate children in sport.

  • Recognise barriers to participation and how to overcome these.

  • Be able to creatively accommodate neurodivergent children in your PE lessons.

  • Want to embrace and support your neurodivergent students.

This is the first presentation in the primary schools bundle.

The second session, Nurturing Neurodiversity in the Classroom, will be coming soon.
