Understanding different types of Special Educational Needs can be both challenging and time-consuming. In order to get the best results, however, quality first teaching and effective interventions for students identified as SEN is crucial. This course will demonstrate practical ways to provide both 'challenging' and 'accessible' learning opportunities for pupils with SEN. These will include pupils with autism, dyslexia and ADHD/ADD.
In addition to examining issues of classroom provision for with SEN, this course will explore practical approaches to meet their needs during individual support sessions.
The course is suitable for all teachers, whether you are newly qualified teachers, experienced classroom teachers, SENcos or specialist support staff.
Delegates will explore a range of differentiation techniques and develop strategies for promoting learning specific to the needs of individual pupils.
