Great to see this policy paper published.
It is particularly encouraging to read about the work of Andy Beattie (Derby SENCO and DHT @becketprimary). From an inclusion perspective, Andy’s paper focusses on curriculum, teaching & assessment.
We have today published a new Policy paper 'Constructing a framework to evaluate the SEND Green Paper' senpolicyresearchforum.co.uk… following our recent event.
Please do share with your contacts and colleagues. thank you
