In partnership with Sunbeams Community Hub Great Yarmouth
embracing neurodiversity through a neuro-affirming approach
We want each neurodivergent child & young person to be their best and happiest authentic selves, and to be accepted by their family, caregivers, educational & vocational environment. We understand that acceptance and belonging are key drivers to maintaining positive mental health and reducing psychological and physical burnout.
We are committed to empowering parents, caregivers, practitioners & professionals to support neurodivergent children & young people through a strengths-based model alongside the SPELL framework and an experience-sensitive approach. We pledge to promote an inclusive culture that embraces diversity in all its forms and aids positive mental health.
We believe that every neurodivergent child & young person has the right to embrace and express their authentic self, free from judgement and full of potential.
We are dedicated to fostering environments that provide inclusivity, celebrate diversity and promote equity, which are pivotal in creating a sense of physical and mental well-being.
Our commitment is to cultivate a world where neurodivergent children and young people thrive, respected for who they are and encouraged to reach their fullest potential.
We are a team of qualified specialist consultants with extensive skills, knowledge and experience in working with neurodiverse children & young people. Our educational and professional backgrounds as well as our lived experiences provide us with insight and discernment into the reality of living with neurodiversity.
Our aim is to empower the parents, siblings and caregivers of neurodivergent children & young people through working in tandem, strengthening their relationships by offering observational sessions, interventions and a comprehensive summary of findings based on the SPELL framework and our experience-sensitive approach.
Our CPD accredited training courses for practitioners and professionals are based on the SPELL framework which was developed by the NAS and our experience-sensitive approach. Our training will embed an understanding of the individual differences of neurodivergent children and young people by embracing their strengths through a neuro-affirming approach.
Our CPD accredited specialist training for SENCOs is designed to empower SENCOs to build new bridges and connections with their neurodivergent students, creating a truly inclusive learning environment where the neurodivergent identity is affirming, not damaging. Our training is based on the SPELL framework and our experience-sensitive approach.
At Paradigm, our aim is to change the narrative around neurodiversity. We use a strength-based model to identify positive qualities and valuable connections to enable children & young people to be their authentic selves.
No. Paradigm's aim is to work in tandem with families and caregivers of neurodivergent children & young people in order to create better connections and an atmosphere of acceptance. We will create and provide a comprehensive summary of findings and interventions ('manual'), which can be shared with educational providers and other professionals. We will also signpost to relevant diagnostic services.

Neurodiversity describes the idea that people experience and interact with the world around them in many different ways; there is no one "right" way of thinking, learning, and behaving, and differences are not viewed as deficits. At Paradigm, we use the term ‘neurodiversity’ to include a number of conditions, not just ASD and ADHD.
Our team at Paradigm has extensive experience in neurodiversity. However, we also know that each child is unique and has individual needs. Please get in touch and we will be happy to discuss how we can help.
