The challenge

Nationally, spending on SEND provision across England is currently unsustainable. Local Authorities have been allowed to accrue debts, which may top £7 billion in 2027.

While demands for mainstream schools to become “more inclusive” and for mainstream classrooms to accommodate a wider range of needs are growing, SEND EHCP systems and processes are overwhelmed.

We now know the ambition and intent of SEND Reforms: The recent Education White Paper lays out a five year road map impacting on in-school provision, staff development and training, costed “bands” of additional support, and implementation plans for all.

Microlink Education wishes to support all schools on this demanding journey.

The Solution

For the past three years, Microlink has been developing a unique unifying approach that aims to do two things:

Remove barriers to learning in mainstream classrooms that prevent ND (Neurodivergent) children from thriving (this includes learners with hidden disabilities, who may not be on the SEN Register)
By making mainstream teaching and learning more accessible, it will enable SEND Teams to focus resource and support on the children that need it most

Welcome to the concept of the Neuroinclusive Classroom!

What Makes the Neuroinclusive Classroom Unique?

Uses existing and emerging AT (Assistive Technologies) in mainstream classrooms to enable all children to learn more effectively, more independently, especially benefiting neurodiverse children across the full ability range. Many of these technologies are free and built-in to platforms that schools use daily.
Adopts the principles of universal design and embraces the social model of disability, making teaching and learning more accessible to more children, lowering the cost of targeted interventions and diagnostic assessments, so that specialist resources serve the children who need them the most.
Supports adaptive teaching, enhancing significantly the impact of good child-centred practice and well-organised lessons. Wholesale change is not required: we advocate evolution not revolution.
Transforms the role of Teaching Assistants, from help and support to one of empowerment and supporting independence.
Addresses the culture and climate of the classroom through developing social and emotional accessibility, and extending the concept of physical accessibility beyond lifts, ramps and wider doors.
Opens a pathway to the more expansive use of AI in schools and in the classroom, built on firm foundations of knowledge, understanding and collective experience.
