Keynote panel: Models of inclusive mainstream provision - trust leader insights
There are clearly significant challenges around inclusion and SEND in the sector. However, there is also good practice which already exists – where teachers and leaders are supporting children with special and additional learning needs well. The panel will share examples of this practice, highlighting the evidence base and principles that underpin their work, and how they could be applied in other contexts. Full panellist line up to follow soon.
