"When the child finds the classroom too much or has a meltdown they can access the sensory room" NO NO NO!

When a child is sent into distress it's traumatising for them. The whole point of 'sensory rooms' or 'quiet spaces' is to help avoid meltdowns or overwhelm, not to manage them.

Knowing that a classroom environment sends a child into trauma is abusive. Children don't 'get used' to sensory overwhelm. They may learn to mask, fawn and hide the trauma from those in the school though - and they often let it all out at home.

We need to do better.

We have some brilliant webinars coming up that will help you, as a parent or a teacher (or both!)...
