• Do your teachers have to deal with low achieving and pupils identified as having SEND?
• Would your staff benefit from a greater understanding of how to cater for pupils with learning differences in their lessons?
• Is a toolkit of practical steps and teaching strategies what your colleagues need to help them cope with lower achievers and pupils with learning differences?

Improving Access to the Curriculum for SEND Pupils

Teachers often have to deliver lesson taking into account not only pupils with a range of academic abilities but also, increasingly, they are having to cater for youngsters with a variety of learning differences. This is often with little specific training in this area.

The course takes the NASEN (National Association of Special Needs) current guidance and brings it to life. It outlines the steps in the ‘graduated response’ approach whilst also providing practical steps and strategies that can be implemented to support all learners
