  5. Embracing Minds: Celebrating Neurodiversity Week

    Embracing Minds: Celebrating Neurodiversity Week

    In recognition of Neurodiversity Week, we sat down with Paula Mason (Head of Learning Support) and Haley Rogers (SEND Mentor) to discuss why CLC feels it’s important to recognise and understand neurodiversity across College, and the value of raising awareness. Throughout this episode, Paula and Haley highlight how neurodiversity should not be seen as a deficit or disorder, and instead viewed as a spectrum of alternative thinking styles that should be celebrated and supported. We all experience day-to-day life differently and have executive function skills. These are the cognitive processes that allow us to manage day-to-day tasks and help with working memory, flexible thinking, managing impulses and self-regulation. They also help us stay focused, plan and be on time and organised.  The music used in this episode is composed and played by Guild member, Toru Obunge.
