Inclusive Learning CPD morning: Spring Term 2020
‘Getting Social Stories Really Right’

You will learn how to spot an ineffective social story and how to collect the right information to form your story focus. The session includes writing a story for a child you know.
* Lynn is the author of “Stories that Explain” (a collection of social stories for primary children) and has been writing social stories for over 12 years.
SEND Forum afternoon: Spring Term 2019
Transition for pupils with SEND: “Where are we going?”
Transition happens on many levels:
Day-to-day
Term-to term
Year-to-year
Between schools and phases
Times of transition happen on many levels. For many pupils with SEND, poor understanding of the significance of transition on the part of adults can be the trigger for anxiety and negative behaviour on the part of children. This training session will explore some guiding principles and strategies that can create successful transitions and avoid unnecessary problems. We look at how to build strong transition into policy and practice through collaboration with colleagues.
