About

Discover Inclusion's vision is to create an accessible education environment for everyone. We provide neuroaffirming training and consultancy for schools, charities and businesses to ensure children and young people with additional support needs get the education they deserve.

Discover Inclusion's resources feature diverse illustrations aiming to create a space where everyone feels represented. The resources champion communication providing access to the curriculum allowing children and young people to learn and achieve.

Discover Inclusion also offers resources, training and consultancy for parents, carers and families. The practical resources give tools to support children to learn and grow when an educational need, disability or disorder can feel overwhelming. In addition, families have access to the Assistance Fund to ensure they receive the support needed despite financial barries.

Kerry Thalia (she/they) - Founding Director

Kerry grew up in North Wales with a strong determination that one day she would be changing lives! Her enthusiasm for inclusion for all, along with her own neurodivergence, has driven her to set up Discover Inclusion.
Kerry has experience working in mainstream and alternative provisions with children with a range of needs. In fact, she has worked with children all over the world, from the Arctic Circle to Costa Rica.
She completed a level 6 diploma in teaching and learning, focussing on inclusion and diversity, and is now working on a Masters in Inclusion at the University of Birmingham.
Kerry is also responsible for drawing the illustrations and designing of the packs we create. In addition to being the creative force behind Discover Inclusion, she provides one to one advice and support by consultation.

  • SENDCast Emotional Regulation Resources for SEND

    The results of a recent study on the widely used Zones of Regulation have come as quite a shock to many in education. Despite its widespread use, the evidence does not seem to support the use of Zones of Regulation, especially with students with SEND.

  • SENDCast - Effective Use of Visuals to Aid Communication

    Children are not making as much progress communicating as they could be and are losing out on their ability to gain independence and autonomy. The failures in communication can lead to a lower expectation or achievement in academic and social areas.

  • Be Beyond Borders - Communicating Our Emotions

    Knowing how we feel can be difficult, let alone communicating it to others. Some of us have been raised to ignore or repress some of our emotions and label them negative versus positive. But emotions contain essential messages that can help us navigate the mysterious and tumultuous path of life.

    "My first impression of the resource packs was how engaging they were. Each pack provides structured activities which integrate all aspects of the teaching of reading, using the Reading Rope as a clear framework."

  • Hania and Jake, parents

    "In the most sensitive yet honest way, Kerry guided us to realise that our pre-verbal, autistic 4yr-old might be ready to toilet train. We were terrified! But what we feared was an impossible task, proved not only achievable, but also a genuinely positive and hugely rewarding chapter in our son’s development. Within a month, he is dry in the day, requesting the toilet and very much enjoying his agency in this new routine. Thank goodness Kerry had the skills to persuade us and support us to not delay, when our son was ready to progress. We’re so grateful."

  • Niamh, SENDCO

    "So excited our Rainbow Speakers have arrived! So useful to use for learners who need help in constructing sentences. This is going to have a huge impact on the children in our school and so excited to use it with them!"
