Training
Teachers are responsible for the learning of all children and young people in their class. Training is available from SEND Service 0-25.
- Staff take the time to get to know children and young people (CYP) such as what they like doing, what is important to them, what they feel or think about aspects of learning, what they feel they need help with.
- Staff are proactive in finding out what other services and agencies are involved with CYP and what they are saying or recommending.
- Staff have opportunities to engage with relevant Continuing Professional Development around CYP's needs and approaches to helpfully address them.
- Staff delivering interventions and providing support in the classroom follow programmes closely and ensure that their classroom support is in line with best practice guidance such as Education Endowment Foundation.
- Staff are effective in their approach to communication, monitoring and information-sharing concerning specific and general aspects of progress.
- Staff work towards developing self-efficacy and, eventually, independence for CYP.
- Staff are solution-focused and communicate encouragement and positivity in their work with CYP.
- Staff provide plentiful, specific and relevant feedback to build a positive growth mindset for the CYP.
