The SEND Code of Practice describes 4 broad areas of need: cognition and learning; communication and interaction; social, emotional and mental health; and sensory and physical needs. In reality though, many students will not neatly fit into one of these categories: their needs may fall across different categories, and even within a category, their needs will be individual. This podcast explores how we can really get to know our students so that our provision becomes tailored to their specific

Year on year, the number of students identified as having Special Educational Needs and Disabilities is increasing and is currently around 15% of the overall school population. Nationally, outcomes for students with SEND are concerningly low, with the performance gap at the end of Y11 increasing over a number of years. It isn’t just academic outcomes that a concern though: research shows that the wellbeing of students with SEN are worrying, with these learners likely to be less happy and also less

Increasingly, TAs are being used to deliver specific interventions and other out-of-class support to students. These interventions are only likely to work if the interventions selected are underpinned by research demonstrating their quality, if the implementation is carefully planned and if TAs are trained and supported to deliver them to a high standard.

In this series so far, we have looked at the SEND Code of Practice and also considered how schools are currently deploying TAs, as well as looking at the impact this can have. In this episode, we will review the evidence for how TAs can have the maximum impact when providing in-class support. We know that when this is done well, with planning and a clear strategy, it can support vulnerable students to make progress.

Since the year 2000, the number of TAs working in schools has more than trebled from 79,000 to more than 243,700. They now make up about a quarter of the full workforce in schools, with schools spending £4.4 billion pounds each year on TAs. With this level of spending, and the fact TAs are often working with the most vulnerable students in schools, it is crucial that all TAs are highly trained and deployed well by leaders to allow them to have the biggest impact possible in their role.

Even if we have studied our subject at degree level, our studies are likely to have been very specialised in great depth, on a narrow aspect of the curriculum. Whilst many teachers love their subject, this does not necessarily translate into a strong knowledge of all aspects of the curriculum across the key stages. This is even more of a challenge for teachers in primary schools who need to master the subject knowledge of multiple disciplines. This podcast explores the importance of subject and

NQTs have always had mentors, but the role of mentoring is really emphasised in the ECF, with schools receiving funding for reduced timetables for mentors of ECTs across their 2-year induction. What’s clear though, is that ECTs don’t just need mentors, they need great mentors. This podcast explores the requirements of mentors in the ECF, and what the research suggests makes really effective mentors have the greatest possible impact on teacher development.--- Send in a voice message:
