developing the skills of a 21st century SENCO

Alwen Coventry, Kent Local Authority

Alwen will outline the developing role of the SENCO; the new SENCO Learning Outcomes and implications for
strategic leadership of SEN and Inclusion within all schools. She will explore the current training needs of SENCOs
and Inclusion Coordinators, and how they can be supported both within the school and the Local Authority. As part of the workshop Alwen will suggest tools to support the SENCO / Inclusion Coordinator to become a strategic leader within the school through developing expertise and use of Provision Mapping, Self Evaluation and Data Analysis. Delegates will be asked to consider ways that the SENCO / Inclusion Coordinator can support, enable and empower colleagues within the school setting to improve outcomes for pupils vulnerable to underachievement and discuss ways to support the SENCO / Inclusion Coordinator to become a more reflective practitioner through effective partnership with Higher Education Institutions.
