This practical guide offers clear, concise and realistic guidance for creating genuinely neuroinclusive learning environments.
Accessible, realistic and packed with practical strategies, Kate Crawford-Blake, an experienced educational professional, explores a range of common neurodivergences and shows how these can shape children’s learning, communication and behaviour. With straightforward explanations and actionable adaptations, she helps busy school staff reflect on their current practice and make meaningful changes that support a wide variety of neurotypes.
Drawing on her extensive work with schools, the author tackles common misconceptions, shifting terminology, stretched CPD time and the increasing challenge of meeting pupils’ needs in crowded classrooms.
Readers will learn how to:
- Identify how different neurodivergences present in school and what they mean for daily teaching.
- Make simple, sustainable adjustments that immediately improve pupils’ experience and engagement.
- Build a more neuroinclusive culture that helps more learners reach their potential.

Key Reviews
'Creating a Neuroinclusive Classroom is an engaging and accessible text for both experienced teachers and those early in their professional development. The author offers a clear, research-informed exploration of neurodiversity, addressing common misconceptions while outlining current thinking around diagnosis, characteristics, needs and inclusive practice.
A particular strength of the book is its reflection on neuroinclusion from a range of perspectives and its detailed focus on sensory, practical approaches. Each element is explained with a strong rationale, helping practitioners understand not only what to do but why. Professionals are invited to reflect on their experiences and access the ideas at their own level.
The inclusion of reflection points, case studies, and first-person accounts provides authenticity. Consideration of how children, families and schools experience neurodiversity helps underpin the advice offered. The strategies throughout are practical, manageable and closely linked to key concepts such as executive function, emotional wellbeing and individual needs.
Overall, this is a highly valuable resource for those working in education. Its blend of research, practice and lived experience makes it both informative and reflective. I will be recommending this text to our undergraduate and postgraduate initial teacher education students, who will benefit greatly from its clarity, relevance and holistic neuroinclusive approach.'
