In this webcast, we will look at the role of the Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator, or SENCo, in Early Years group settings that are not schools; this would mainly mean settings in the Private, Voluntary and Independent sector, or PVIs. Being an effective SENCo can be a very rewarding role, but it is not an easy one.

Some questions/ideas to think about while you listen/read:

Find out who takes on the role of SENCo in your setting.

How do you think SENCos should keep up to date with current practice?

Have you worked with the SENCo in your setting? How did this help?

Are there any questions that you would like to ask your SENCo, or relevant person?

Suitable for: Early Years Practitioner, SENCO
