A proposal to increase the available SEN payment allowances which has been considered over the last few months through a working party of headteachers from maintained schools, special schools and the trade unions and has been shared with members of SSAB. Please see below.
Dates have now been arranged for “Team Teach Basic” which will take place on 19th & 20th November and for “Introduction to Dyspraxia /Learning to move – Moving to learn” which will take place on 6th December. For full details, please see document attached below.
A date has now been arranged for the above training. It will take place on 22nd November 2018, 9.30am – 3.00pm at Hazel Oak School. Cost £110 (lunch provided).
Description: We recognise that some children process information differently. This course provides practitioners with practical strategies that support individuals with Sensory and Communication needs.
Audience: All settings working with pupils with SEND, EYFS practitioners and NQTs.
Following the Local Area inspection of Special Educational Needs and Disabilities Inspection by Ofsted and Care Quality Commission in October 2017 the attached letter identifies strengths and areas for improvement. This is a narrative judgement, there is no overall judgement. The local authority has not been asked to produce a written statement of action.
However, an action plan is being written to address issues and the SEND Board met on 10 January to develop this further. Louise Minter is the SSSAB representative on the Board. I will ensure that the action plan is shared once completed.
Thank you for your support during the inspection, especially those schools visited by inspectors, and for the commitment you have to meeting the additional needs of our children and young people.
