Elevate your SEND leadership with our transformative INSET session, designed to empower SENCOs, Heads, and SEND leaders to excel in Ofsted inspections through strategic communication, comprehensive context understanding, and robust curriculum design. This session offers practical tools and insights to enhance the quality of SEND provision, ensuring every pupil’s needs are met with excellence and confidence.
