Many educational approaches unintentionally increase anxiety and demand for PDA learners, making participation, learning and relationships more difficult. This practical webinar explores how to recognise when a pupil’s nervous system is responding to threat, why traditional behaviour strategies often backfire, and how to adapt communication, expectations and environments to reduce demand while maintaining belonging. Suitable for educators working with both primary and secondary-aged pupils.
