Every Child is Different – Open access

This online version is targeted at those who have responsibility for pupils with special educational needs in mainstream schools, including head teachers, school governors, class and subject teachers, SENCOs and others. It provides an outline of some of the main responsibilities under the SEN Code of Practice which came into effect in January 2002.

Courses for teachers and learning support assistants

The following two courses are not stand alone but are intended to be delivered in the context of LA support services to maximise capacity building in mainstream and special schools. They are delivered by online tutors drawn from these support services. For further information about training as an online tutor contact hughclench@btinternet.com

Both modules are aimed at those working directly with children and young people with special educational needs. While the modules will be of interest to SENCOs, specialist teachers and others, they are primarily aimed at increasing participation in training amongst those who might not normally have access to it, such as class teachers, learning support assistants and others.
