This document has been developed based on the feedback from Special Educational Needs Co-ordinators (SENCOs).
It is designed to provide you with an overview of the type of information that will support you. This pack covers a range of different areas which you can refer to as needed.
We understand that SENCO’s work across a broad range of settings so some sections may be more relevant to you than others.
The pack has been designed to signpost you to a range of resources as well as the SEND Code of Practice (2015) that will help you to develop your knowledge, skills and understanding.
