MULTI-SENSORY FUN & IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCES FOR SCHOOLS
We are passionate about creating fun, stimulating and accessible sensory experiences for the Special Educational Needs and Disabilities community around the UK.
We have been working with some of the UK’s most influential special schools and organisations for over 20 years to bring immersive experiences and sensory shows for schools. These include The Childrens Trust, Chailey Heritage Foundation, Treloars, Post 19 and schools such as Jigsaw, Carew Academy, Sherwood Hill, Sherwood Park, Woodlands and Icknield to name a few.
Our Makaton trained professional actors and facilitators are highly specialised in working with children and young people with a wide range of disabilities including visual, hearing and sensory impairments, ASD, PMLD, SLD and complex health needs.
Captivating the senses using aromas, textures, sounds and activities every workshop and show is designed to bring young imaginations to life, enhance learning, encourage communication, build connections and develop emotional, behavioural and motor skills.
Head2Head’s unique range of sensory experiences can be used for educational purposes or just for a real treat.

– Varied pace

How do our sensory shows for schools work?
Our team will visit your school for one day. Our visit will include:
· Timed sessions (timing will vary depending on workshop or show chosen (including 30-minute breaks in-between sessions)
· Participant numbers will vary per session dependent on accessibility and number of wheelchair users
· A resource pack. This will prepare participants with Widgit storyline/songs & images of characters
· Set up/scenery, props and instruments
Please note: some installations may take up to 90 minutes to set up. We will require use of a space large enough to set up and for participants to move around. This must be allocated to our team for exclusive use the whole day.
We understand that every school and every student is different. Please contact us if you have any questions. We are always open to new ideas and are happy to discuss your specific requirements.
