This paper is a record of the invited Policy Seminar held at Regent's College, Regents Park, London (14th November 2002), the fourth of the fourth series of policy seminars, which examined issues that arise in the rethinking of the 14-19 curriculum from a SEN perspective. The seminar considered curriculum themes relating to the academic/vocational divide, disaffection, the location and range of providers, entitlement and appropriateness, Government policy, an EU perspective and research on the possible impact of a more inclusive scheme for certification. It was chaired by Professor Michael Young, Institute of Education, London University. Papers were presented by Dr Lesley Dee, School of Education, University of Cambridge, Christopher Robertson, School of Education, University of Birmingham, Ann Gross, Head of SEN Division, DfES, Professor Geoff Lindsay, University of Warwick and Keith Bovair, Head teacher, Enfield LEA. About 40 people participated in the half-day seminar, coming from schools, LEA support services, LEA officers, DfEE, Government Agencies, parent groups, the voluntary sector, health service professionals, educational psychologists and universities.
