At Gaia Learning, we understand that teaching neurodivergent learners goes far beyond academics. Our approach focuses on empowering these learners to understand and work with their neurodivergence, rather than feeling forced to conform to systems that don't fit their unique ways of thinking and processing.
We have a range of readymade courses and online programmes designed to support neurodivergent young people and those with additional needs, thrive.
Our courses come in 3 categories...
Our homeschooling programmes for children aged 8-16 are designed to be fun, flexible, and perfect for neurodivergent learners. We understand that every child learns differently, so we’ve created an interest-based curriculum that supports a range of abilities and learning styles, wherever you are in the world. Each “year” runs over 9 months, with parent-led support to ensure a personalised, family-friendly learning experience.
For children aged 8-11, our courses strike a balance between parental involvement and growing independence, encouraging them to explore their interests in a supportive and engaging environment. For those aged 11-14, we help learners develop greater autonomy, giving them the freedom to delve deeper into the subjects they love while building confidence in self-directed learning.
Our programmes are ideal for neurodivergent children who thrive when they can learn at their own pace and follow what excites them. We also ensure a smooth transition into more advanced studies, with plenty of guidance for families along the way.
Overall, this course aims to foster exploration and creativity in learning about space and sustainability, offering a highly flexible structure that is adaptable to various learner needs.
