Sensory Space Success Stories
See how schools and organisations use Sensory Space to support engagement, cause and effect, and calm, regulated moments, with real examples and practical takeaways.
“He signed ‘more’.”
At Green Fold School, Sensory Space became more than just a digital tool, it created pure magic for one young learner called Oliver, who has PMLD. Using the Spaceship activity, Oliver's teacher moved his chair in time with the animation and suddenly, he was soaring through space. As the spaceship stopped, he signed “more”, eager to continue.
“Every pupil can join in now.”
We caught up with Pendle View Primary School in Lancashire, where they’ve been using Sensory Space to build a more inclusive, joyful learning environment. By adapting everything from access methods like switches and eye gaze to visual settings for pupils with impairments, every child found a way to engage.
“They were completely captivated.”
When pupils at Holly Grove School tried Sensory Space for the first time, staff saw something special - immediate engagement, independent exploration, and moments of shared joy. Learners accessed it in a variety of ways, from iPads in a dark tent to interactive boards and laptops. No matter how they accessed it, they were drawn in.
