Sensory Processing and Strategies
The Sensory Action Plan is available on this page as discussed during the webinars.
Sensory Processing and Sensory Strategies webinars
In Part 1- Understanding Sensory Processing, we:

- considered the differences diverse learners, including autistic young people, may experience with processing information from their senses
- identified how sensory processing differences may impact on the daily lives of individuals and those around them.
In Part 2- Implementing Sensory Strategies, we:
- discussed the importance of understanding sensory processing differences
- reviewed tools, strategies and resources that can assist individuals to meet their sensory needs and engage in everyday activities.
