Live Discussion

Join us for a FREE discussion exploring 'Inclusive approaches to learner plans’ in cross-phase settings.

This session focuses on individual plans for SEND learners in the context of a focus on inclusion. Participants will explore how learner plans are linked to an inclusive approach, target setting, and the recording the small steps of progress learners make towards their targets at individual and whole school level. It will demonstrate a range of practical tools for use in schools. Led by Malcolm Reeve, National SEND Leader for WSS. The training includes opportunities for discussion, reflection, and Q&A. Attendees will gain expert insights into aligning inclusive practice with the unique needs and strengths of each learner.

Due to the interactive nature of these sessions, recordings will not be made available after the event.
