Transitions & Change: Helping SEN Children Adapt

15 JULY 2026

In this webinar, Birgit Forstmaier-James, our Occupational Therapist, explores practical advice and supportive strategies to help you support your child navigate transitions and change with confidence.

She shares:

✔️ How to identify transitions and recognise the impact that even subtle changes in routine, environment, people or expectations can have on your child

✔️ Why transitions can be challenging for children with SEN, including the role of anxiety, reliance on routine, and differences in processing change

✔️ Practical, supportive strategies to make transitions more predictable and manageable, helping to build confidence and support emotional regulation.
