Primary SEND Hub

Main aims of the project in 2019 - 20

The number of pupils entering mainstream schools with a range of special needs and disabilities continues to grow and the importance of sharing expertise from across Camden has been highlighted as a strategic priority for Camden Learning. The SEND hub will build on the successful work achieved in year one.

The aims of the Hub are:-

One key area will be assessment after P levels, with a focus on promoting and enhancing inclusive classrooms in Camden by working intensively with Recently Qualified Teachers (RQTs) in particular.
To support practitioners to include children with SEND and autism in the mainstream classroom across EYFS, KS1 and KS2.
To give practical support and strategies to include children with a range of complex needs.
To offer examples of high quality practice in a mainstream setting to enable practitioners to deliver the best possible outcomes in their own school.
