Introduction
Neurodivergence refers to the natural differences in how people think, learn, and process the world. Understanding these terms helps families, schools, and carers build empathy and support.
Autism
Autism is a spectrum condition. It may affect communication, social interaction, and sensory processing. Every autistic person is unique—there’s no one-size-fits-all.
ADHD
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder involves challenges with focus, impulsivity, and energy regulation. With the right support, children and adults with ADHD can thrive.
Sensory Differences
Many neurodivergent people experience heightened or reduced sensitivity to sound, light, touch, or taste. Recognizing this helps create inclusive environments.
Beyond Labels
Neurodivergence also includes dyslexia, dyspraxia, Tourette’s, and more. Labels are tools for understanding—not limits on potential.
Takeaway
Neurodivergence is part of human diversity. By embracing differences, we build stronger, more compassionate communities.
