The RESOURCE: Selective Mutism Strategies offers practical, empathetic guidance for supporting children and young people who experience situational or selective mutism—often linked to anxiety, trauma, or neurodivergent profiles. It outlines tailored strategies to reduce pressure, build trust, and create safe communication environments across home and school settings. The resource helps parents and professionals understand the emotional drivers behind mutism and provides actionable steps to support gradual verbal engagement without punitive measures. It’s especially valuable for informing SEN Support plans, APDR cycles, and reasonable adjustments under the Equality Act 2010 . . .
