Summer Term 2020
We are delighted to announce the arrival of the summer term Inclusion Forum, with online interactive sessions beginning on Thursday 28th May, extending through to September. As with the spring forum, there will also be a recorded version that will be embedded into the hidden webpage for anyone preferring to watch it at a time to suit themselves, or those sharing it with colleagues in school to extend the impact of this CPD.
The alternative interactive online sessions will be presented via Microsoft Teams. Do not worry if you are not signed up to Teams, as we will invite you as a guest prior to the session, plus a recorded version will also be available on the ‘hidden-webpage’ afterwards.

Read here about the impact our Inclusion Forums have had in schools.
An increasing number of schools and clusters now prefer to invite Zena into their school to deliver courses, staff training, INSET days or a package of support directly with staff……for further details please visit here
Our aim is to provide all attending delegates of our Inclusion Forums with the slideshows, handouts and resources required, so that you can deliver the same course back in your own school. Indeed, many delegates have reported successfully doing so. We achieve this by providing delegates with access to hidden web pages that contain all the necessary resources to download.
Our copyright terms are that attending delegates are free to use all the materials provided within their own school only. Please contact us if you would like to share with clusters of schools, teaching school alliances or MATs.
