Powerpoint including assessment activities, notes and videos for Part 1 - cells and specialised cells of Topic 1 - Key concepts in Biology

As a SENCO I found it extremely frustrating constantly having to remind teachers about specific students needs and how to support these. Despite having access to an inclusion register. I have created this booklet that has been given to all staff to ensure they are fully aware of all students with additional needs and how to support these fully in their lessons. The contents have been collated from various websites and sources for ease of use in one document. Including key documents made by myself. The booklet contains: 1. An introduction to the booklet and how to use it 2. Key and Acronyms 3. Broad areas of need explained 4. List of students identified with SEND (anonymized ready to input your school’s information into) 5. Students for whom reasonable adjustments should be made (anonymized ready to input your school’s information into) 6. Supporting Pupils with Statements of SEND/EHCPs (anonymized ready to input your school’s information into) 7. Student’s Health Care Plans. 8. Named Students/students with mentors 9. Specific Learning Difficulties (SPLD) definition 10. ADHD and Autistic Spectrum Disorder definition 11. Supporting students with Dyslexia 12. Supporting students with ASD 13. Supporting students with numeracy difficulties. 14. Supporting students with ADHD 15. Supporting Students with SLCN 16. Questioning Blank Levels 17. Simplifying questions 18. Differentiation techniques to teach key vocabulary and key concepts 19. Referral form – Learning Concerns 20. Referral form – Behavioural and emotional concerns 21. Record of concern form (CP) 22. Subject teacher feedback form 23. Pupil passport proforma 24. Interventions offered in school 25. Assess, Plan, Do, Review Cycle

This is a pupil passport template including anonymised completed examples. Ideal for SEN students. If completed alongside the student it is far more effective and becomes person centered as set out in the SEND code of practice. Sections include: I would like you to know that... I find it difficult to.... It would help me if you could.... etc I started off using these with my SEN students, however, now most students in my school have these and take control of these passports - very powerful tool.

This form can be made available to teachers in your school to enable them to report concerns they may have with a pupil's behavior and/or emotional well-being. Makes it easier to collate information on particular pupils if concerns are raised. Creates an easy way of contacting the SENCO/Inclusion Manager/Year heads - rather than being told things in passing whilst walking down a corridor!!
