Many neurodiverse children and young people demonstrate strengths such as problem-solving, intuition, memory, and cognitive ability. The resources can be used as a starter activity before lessons, to help children regulate their nervous system, preparing them for their learning.

The SEND Academy self and co-regulation resources are created to encourage children, young people, and educators to use life-long strategies that are needed to regulate the nervous system. Many SEND children and young people, find it difficult to calm the body and mind when feeling overwhelmed. The resources we offer give structured and helpful tools and strategies to help self-regulate. We also acknowledge the importance of co-regulation and energy transfer, which impacts the children either negatively or positively. The co-regulation strategies ensure teachers can tap into tools that create a calming environment, not only for the children, but also for themselves. Using these tools regularly, will become a standard practice for children when they feel anxious or stressed, which will not only help them in the classroom, but outside of the classroom and for their future. The benefits include reduced stress, calm environment, improved emotional well-being, improved immune system, digestive system and overall well-being.
