New SEND and inclusion training

A training package that is part of the government’s special educational needs and disability (SEND) reform plans for an inclusive education system has just been launched.

It will support teachers and teaching assistants to:

• Build confidence and expertise in inclusive teaching practices
• Create positive, supportive and inclusive learning environments
• Understand and respond effectively to individual needs.

Whilst schools are not required to deliver the training, they are encouraged to do so.
