This is an SEND CPD resource. There is information about ADHD, Asperger’s Syndrome and Autism as well as strategies that could be used within the classroom when teaching students with these conditions. There is a combination of information slides and activities that staff can do to support the teaching of students with these conditions.

This assembly focuses on promoting positive mental health through encouraging people to accept and then address. The assembly looks at how celebrities are encouraging people to speak about mental health, the on-line support available, challenges that can encourage a more positive mindset and how highlighting is key to success.

This power point was created to show how SEND Learners can be individually tracked ensuring clear targets and monitoring. The rationale is explained, and this can be delivered to SEN specialist teams or adapted for Faculties / Departments / Pastoral Teams. The CPD has been spilt into two sections which include: 1 - To embed a tracking system to monitor progress 8 leading to a robust and measurable intervention programme for SEN students in Years 7 – 11. 2 – To maximise outcomes through developing SEN Teaching and Learning provision, including the use of LSA’s. The power point leads you through the information which is supported by an example of the tracking document on word which can be adapted for any setting.

This power point can be used when training NQTs / new staff teaching S.E.N.D groups, or for the whole staff to consider how to differentiate for lower ability students.
