Strategically Developing SEND Practice in the EYFS

Meeting the Needs of Children with SEND in the EYFS: An overview of statutory and best practice guidance

Description

Delivered through a lens of neurodiversity-affirming practice, this course supports senior leaders in developing a clear understanding of the statutory SEND framework and its implications for early years provision.

The session emphasises practical application, ensuring that leaders can translate guidance into effective, inclusive practice that supports all learners to thrive.

 

Key areas of focus include:

  • The legal and statutory framework for SEND in the EYFS

  • Early identification, assessment, and tracking of children’s needs

  • Adaptive and responsive teaching approaches to support all learners

  • The key components of an inclusive early years environment

 

The course aims to equip leaders with the knowledge and confidence to evaluate current practice, strengthen provision, and ensure that all children receive the support they need to thrive.

 

Benefits:

  • Have a deeper understanding of SEND in the early years and the statutory duties that underpin effective provision

  • Be able to ensure that all statutory elements of SEND provision are implemented consistently and effectively within their setting

  • Develop a clear vision of what an inclusive environment looks like in practice - and what to look for during a learning walk
