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:

  • explored sensory processing
  • 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.
