Supporting SEN: Your strategies for inclusive classroom practice

What is the event about?

Recent government statistics reveal a significant surge in special educational needs (SEN) among pupils in England, reaching 17.3% of the pupil population, a figure exacerbated by the challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic. The complexity of needs has also been increasing, amplifying the pressure on educators. 

Out of the 1.5 million pupils with SEN, only 25% have an Education, Health, and Care (EHC) plan. And, with demands at unprecedented levels, waiting times for EHCPs have seen a concerning rise, resulting in prolonged waiting times. 

Equipping teachers and support staff with effective tools and training becomes crucial in navigating this mounting pressure.
