SEND/Inclusion CPD Programme

The SEND/Inclusion Professional Learning Programme is developed by Enfield Schools’ trusted partners in the Local Authority.  Training courses will be predominantly delivered online.  Training will cover a range of special educational needs support and advice to assist practitioners in developing their skills to meet the needs of children and young people who present with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities.  Training related to Autism, Social and Emotional Mental Health and Speech, Language and Communication needs are provided by EASA, SWERRL/NEXUS and ECASS respectively.

The PL Programme

The SEND/Inclusion Professional Learning programme is designed to support school staff to meet the needs of pupils with SEND.  Access to the programme will enable colleagues to fulfil school responsibilities under the SEND Code of Practice including its statutory elements.

Within the SEND/Inclusion CPD programme, there are different packages for different roles within the school.  These offer a 10% discount for schools that choose to buy training in this way as opposed to Pay as you Go.  Although it is recommended that one member of staff completes a programme, there is flexibility for schools to buy a package for more than one staff member. 

Multiple packages may also be bought by a school or trust.

Schools that purchase two or more packages can access the Language and Social Skills (LASS) support package for primary schools without charge from the Early Years Social Inclusion team.

These comprehensive packages are devised with local knowledge and aim to support school staff in responding to the challenges that practitioners face in their day to day work. 

All courses will also be available on a Pay as You Go basis. For more information please click on the link SEND & Inclusion | Enfield Professional Learning
