The recent SEN reforms amount to a substantial change in the delivery of education – the biggest in 30 years. Perhaps one of the most important things to consider is the renewed emphasis on SEN provision as an integral part of quality first teaching, and ensuring that all pupils are making the appropriate progress is part and parcel of the responsibilities of all teachers.
Every teacher is a teacher of children with SEN, a point reinforced by the draft SEN Code of Practice which is currently out for consultation (see below for more information on the Code).
The new code places teachers at the centre of provision for pupils with SEN, and while it is not due to come into effect until September 2014, schools are already being inspected by Ofsted with a renewed focus on pupils with SEN.
