In this workshop, Kate facilitated sessions for PSHE Co-Ordinators across Derbyshire mainstream and specialist schools on adapting RSE to provide greater accessibility for neurodivergent and disabled learners to complement any additional individualised programmes. It also challenged educations role in dismantling harmful RSE tropes which reinforce ableist communication standards that the evidence base and lived experience feedback demonstrate has contributed to mental health problems in autistic and ADHD people.
