Reflective Professional Development Course with Integration
In-person | Small group | Bespoke options availableThis course offers a paced, experiential introduction to sound awareness and responsive sound use in contexts where children and young people are present.
The focus is on how sound is perceived, how sound environments influence regulation and wellbeing, and how practitioners can work with greater sensitivity, pacing, and awareness when sound is present.
The course is offered as reflective professional development and supports thoughtful, ethical engagement with sound rather than the delivery of techniques, interventions, or therapeutic approaches.
Images are used for illustrative purposes to reflect sound-aware environments.
Who this course is for
This course is suitable for professionals who already work with children and young people, including:
- Early Years practitioners and facilitators
- SEN teachers and support practitioners
- Wellbeing practitioners working in child-centred settings
A separate version of this course is available by enquiry for those working with young people aged 12 and over.

- Responsive approaches to playing and using sound
