Back to events
27 March 2025 09:30-15:30 Online

A one-day course designed to help new Teaching Assistants with limited relevant experience understand essential classroom approaches and strategies for SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) provisions. As the government’s push for inclusion progresses, more children with significant educational needs will be present in mainstream classrooms.

The course covers:

  • Safer Working Practices

  • SEND Teaching Assistant Role Definition

  • Removing Barriers to Learning

  • Expectations, Assertiveness & Behaviour Management in SEND Provisions

  • Summary

This course must be completed before inexperienced SEND TAs are placed, in line with compliance guidance.

If you are unable to fully attend from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., please rebook for a time when you are available and can participate throughout.
