A Day to Bring Sensory Inclusion into the Everyday
1
This summit is built for you.
Whether you're a therapist adapting clinic and home environments, a SENCO reshaping a classroom for one child, an early-years practitioner building sensory-friendly routines, a paediatric nurse reimagining how your clinic welcomes a child, a social worker rethinking family contact spaces, or a psychologist creating more sensory-accessible assessment settings.

We've curated a programme of leading UK voices working at the intersection of sensory integration and education.
Expect research that's grounded in lived experience, practice that's grounded in evidence, and a tone that's neuro-affirming throughout.
3
The summit runs as a single day of pre-recorded sessions on Tuesday 13 October 2026, with all content free to watch for one week afterwards.
You'll receive a CPD certificate of attendance and the chance to win a free place on our flagship Sensory Inclusion Facilitator course or a £200 course voucher.

And if you'd like to keep coming back to the recordings beyond the free week, the SIE Lifelong Learning Membership gives you extended access alongside the rest of our learning library.
