nasen Recognised Practitioner of SEND course
This course is built around a deeper exploration of the implications of the An introduction to SEND in practice and Understanding and supporting universal needs. It has been developed to link with your day to day working practice – it encourages you to develop a resource or professional artefact (for example, a novel intervention; an assessment tool; a lesson plan template or a learning resource) which can be used in your setting.
This course is suitable for those in a non-teaching role (TA, nursery nurse, LSA etc). If you work in as a teacher in a school or FE setting, with or without QTS (Qualified Teacher Status), you may be interested in our Recognised Teacher of SEND course.
