Online Live Workshop 
22 September 2026 
Description
This workshop looks at the Bruininks as a measure of motor proficiency and considers how results may be understood through a sensory integration lens. It explores the difference between describing motor performance and understanding underlying sensory motor contributions, especially in relation to coordination, confidence, participation, and functional school demands.
Learning outcomes:
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
- describe the purpose and structure of the Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency
- distinguish between motor performance findings and sensory integrative explanations
- discuss how findings may relate to coordination, bilateral integration, confidence, and school participation
- reflect on how to use motor findings more thoughtfully within broader school-based formulation
- leave more confident in linking motor test data to meaningful school participation concerns
Participants will learn it through guided teaching on the Bruininks, discuss it in relation to real school cases, apply it to participation based reasoning, reflect on current use of motor data, and take it back into practice through stronger interpretation.
We know that school-based practice can look very different depending on your role, setting, and service model. Our small tutor groups are matched, as far as possible, by professional and practice context, for example, mainstream schools, specialist schools, visiting services, or integrated school-based roles. This helps OT, PT, SLT and wider AHP colleagues explore ideas in ways that feel relevant, supportive, and easier to take back into everyday practice.
Learn it. Discuss it. Apply it. Reflect on it. Take it back into practice.
