Author • Advisor • Therapeutic Play Specialist
Thank you for your interest in hosting a training day. I love working directly with school teams to share ideas, ignite creativity, and offer practical strategies for inclusive, sensory, and therapeutic learning.
I deliver a wide range of bespoke CPD days, each linked to my published books with Routledge (Taylor & Francis) and rooted in real, usable classroom and therapeutic practice.
🧠 Training Topics Available
I offer school workshops based on the themes of my books, including:
- Learning Through Play (including play schemas and sensory learning)
- VR, AR, and AI in Special Education
- Therapeutic Trampolining
- Music, Sound and Vibration for SEN
- Supporting Neurodivergent Children in the Early Years
- Organising for SEN Meetings (based on my guide for parents)
Each day is tailored to your school’s age range, staff needs, and current priorities — whether you’re a special school, resource base, nursery or mainstream inclusion unit.
🧩 What’s Included in a Full Day
A full-day school visit includes:
- Up to 3 interactive and engaging sessions
- A resource-rich table session (with up to 15 sets of materials provided)
- Tailored practical games, booklets and play resources
- Optional book signing and informal lunch Q&A with staff
🧸 For play-focused days, this might include schema-based challenges, pass-the-parcel team games, discussion prompts, and prizes ranging from £3–£50 — all designed and prepared in advance to make the day unforgettable.
