SEND

Overview

This training session provides staff with a practical toolkit of universal therapeutic strategies for everyday classroom use, sharing strong examples of effective practice from across the trust. Participants will gain resources for screening pupil needs, delivering universal sensory, motor and functional skill interventions, and grading support for learners who require additional opportunities, ensuring consistent, accessible provision for all pupils. 

Our Aims

• Empower teachers to strengthen their pedagogical practice, ensuring high-quality, inclusive, and adaptive teaching that meets the diverse needs of all learners, particularly those with SEND. 

• Create a culture of excellence in teaching and learning, with consistently high expectations for every pupil. Equip teachers to adapt their approaches to remove barriers, close gaps, and enable all children, regardless of background or need, to achieve their full potential. 

• Develop teachers’ expertise through targeted professional development, academic research, collaboration, and the sharing of best practice, with a strong focus on adaptive teaching strategies and subject-specific pedagogy.
