During these very challenging times, and now having come out the other end to a changing world, many SENCOs are finding it increasingly difficult to manage their teaching alongside their role as a SENCO.
The SENCO continues to have a very important strategic role to play in a school and yet many are not on the leadership team and most have a significant teaching commitment.

This course will:
- Give delegates an update on the position of SEND nationally
- Offer support and guidance on managing SEND in very challenging times
