Thinking About Teaching Assistants

'Fabulous mix of theory supported by best practice models and practical tools to achieve them. A really useful suite of stepped proformas to work directly with staff in school. Thank you.'

 

'I found the opportunity to think about how we use TAs valuable. It made me think about how teachers need training in how to use their TAs effectively.'

Induction for New SENCos

'Great to have time to talk to other SENCos and share advice and information. The practical activities were most helpful particularly ‘where are you now’ and ‘plan for the year.'

'Absolutely fabulous, lots to take in – I’m enthused and at times overwhelmed.'

New to G&T Co-ordinator

'An excellent way of breaking down the role of a G&T co-ordinator. Really helpful going through actions that need to be met and good examples of good classroom practice. I feel more confident now in my role as G&T co-ordinator.'

 

'The whole day has made the whole G&T area clearer, I am now full of ideas to help the teachers in school become more effective educators of these pupils.'

Promoting excellent inclusive practice in Hertfordshire

The SEND/AG&T team provides consultancy and support to ensure high quality inclusive provision in schools and other settings through monitoring, challenging and intervention strategies.

A key aspect of the team’s role is providing training and consultancy to support the self evaluation and strategic planning of inclusive provision, particularly in relation to special educational needs and disabilities and gifted and talented provision. It supports local networks of schools with briefings for SEND AG&T to disseminate good practice and provide training for school staff.

The SEND / Able Gifted and Talented team offers a range of consultancy support tailored to the needs of schools.
