New for 2026: NEURO INCLUSIVE CLASSROOM TRAINING

Find out why Victoria Bagnall created our new training "The Neuroinclusive Classroom Practice"

After more than a decade working with schools, teachers, families and professionals, Victoria kept hearing the same thing:

"We understand the theory, but what do we actually do in the classroom?"

Teachers wanted practical strategies.

SENCOs wanted a shared language across their teams.

School leaders wanted approaches that could be applied consistently across their setting.

That's why Victoria created Neuroinclusive Early Years Practice and Neuroinclusive Classroom Practice.

Designed specifically for schools, these programmes bridge the gap between neuroscience and everyday practice, helping staff understand executive function, regulation and inclusion in ways that can be applied immediately.

✔ Practical, not theoretical

✔ Designed for real classrooms

✔ Built around implementation, not information

✔ From just £148 (inc vat) per person (team of 6)

As author of The Neuroinclusive Educator (Bloomsbury, 2026) and one of the UK's leading Executive Function specialists, Victoria's goal has always been simple:

To help schools move from understanding to action.

What does great office support actually look like?

For Chelle, it wasn't about becoming better at managing diaries, inboxes or to-do lists.

It was about understanding the person behind them.

After completing Connections in Mind's Neuro-Trained PA programme, Chelle discovered that meaningful support starts with understanding how different people think, plan, organise and approach everyday tasks.

Today, she uses her training in executive function and neuroinclusive support to help clients create practical systems that reduce overwhelm, build confidence and make everyday life and work more manageable.

"It's not about doing everything for someone. It's about helping people find what works for them."

Read Chelle's story and discover how Connections in Mind's Neuro-Trained PA & Office Support service is helping people stay organised, focused and on track.

Successful on the outside. Overwhelmed behind the scenes?

For many professionals, the challenge isn't capability.

It's staying on top of overflowing inboxes, competing priorities, diary management, deadlines and the endless stream of everyday admin.

That's why we created our Neuro-Trained PA & Admin Support Service.

Our specialist team provides practical support with:

✔ Inbox and email management

✔ Diary and appointment coordination

✔ Planning and prioritisation

✔ Administrative and business support

✔ Accountability and follow-through

This isn't traditional Personal Assistant and Admin support.

It's practical support designed to help you reduce overwhelm, create systems that work and focus on what you do best.
