This event is run as part of the ETF’s Centres for Excellence in SEND programme.

Facilitated by Natspec, this session explores findings from research into inclusion in specialist FE colleges. Participants will reflect on how these findings compare with their experiences in general FE and consider the challenges and opportunities for creating more inclusive experiences for learners with SEND.

Who is this for?

The session is for teachers and practitioners in the FE and skills sector and leaders.

Training aim

This session, facilitated by Natspec, presents the data from Natspec’s research into inclusion within specialist FE colleges. Participants will be encouraged to reflect on how the findings align with their experiences in general FE colleges and what the challenges and opportunities are to providing an included experience for learners with SEND.

In line with the SEND reform ambitions, participants will also discuss how partnership working may be strengthened between mainstream and specialist FE to drive greater inclusion across the education system.

Outcomes

  • Reflect on the key findings from Natspec’s research into inclusion in specialist FE colleges and consider how these align with your own experiences.
  • Explore opportunities for stronger partnership working between mainstream and specialist FE providers and identified practical approaches to driving greater inclusion across the education system.
