An extensive teaching toolkit to equip, enable and empower educators with the relevant knowledge they need to support young people with special educational needs and disability (SEND). Who is this resource for? The STAR toolkit has been developed for use by educators with young people with SEND in Key Stages 3 and 4. The materials have been designed to be adaptable to the needs of different young people and their learning settings. Some of the activities are suitable for pupils with SEND who are slightly younger or older than 11- 16 years old and educators are invited to adapt and select from within the toolkit to best suit their purposes. The resources could also be used with young people who have no additional needs but who may benefit from a more tailored and structured resource to access messages and advice about online safety risks. How can I use the toolkit? The STAR toolkit is made up of four key sections, which reflect current online safety risks and experiences of young people. Educators can work through each section in turn or pick and choose from the resources available to focus on the issues most relevant to the young people they work with. Each section of the toolkit includes: An introduction and advice for educators on teaching this topic Key vocabulary to share with learners Starting point discussions to introduce key concepts Teaching point activities designed to deliver key messages in a variety of styles A quiz for recap and assessment Ways to revisit and extend the learning A document to share beyond the classroom (with parents, carers and residential staff) Every part of the toolkit can be adapted and used by educators however suits their setting and learners best.
