Maximising Your Northern Ireland SPiM Funding: Sensory Resources for Inclusive Classrooms

Specialist Provisions in Mainstream (SPiM) settings across Northern Ireland have recently received £1,800 in funding to enhance support for students with additional needs. This funding provides schools with an incredible opportunity to invest in high-quality sensory resources that foster inclusion, engagement, and accessibility within mainstream classrooms.

At Learning SPACE, we understand the importance of ensuring that these funds are spent effectively to create meaningful learning environments. That’s why we have developed a range of tailored sensory sets designed to meet the diverse needs of SPiM settings while staying within the allocated budget.

Why Invest in Sensory Resources?

For children with additional learning needs, having access to sensory-friendly spaces is crucial. Sensory tools can help improve focus, emotional regulation, and overall well-being, allowing pupils to engage more effectively in their learning. Whether it's through movement, deep pressure, or calming environments, our carefully curated packs offer practical, cost-effective solutions to meet the needs of these spaces.
