As part of SWIFT’s commitment to creating high-quality opportunities for staff to learn, develop and connect, we are committed to providing meaningful professional development to support all children and young people, including disadvantaged children and those with SEND in order to help them to achieve the best educational outcomes. SWIFT has evolved their CPD SEND programme to bring up-to-date and practical training for colleagues to take back helpful strategies and knowledge into their own educational settings. Course Structure The SEND series for 2022 – 2023 consists of three sessions, all of which are online. Session 1 | Teaching Assistants New to the Role Tuesday 27 September 2022 | 1100 – 1200 | Online This session will enable Teaching Assistants who are new (and not so new) to their role to develop a vision of what exemplary practice looks like. With reference to Professional Standards, research and recommendations, this session will reflect on the role of the Teaching Assistant and begin to develop relevant skills and knowledge when supporting children and young people with SEND.

Session 3 | Governor SEND Training Tuesday 6 June 2023 | 1800 – 1900 | Online Every Board of Governors is responsible for holding leaders to account for the education of learners with SEND. This session will help Boards to deliver effectively on this responsibility and ensure that they have a positive impact in their setting with regards to outcomes for learners with SEND. Governors will be supported in how to ensure that their setting has robust systems to cope with SEND and to understand SEND on the frontline. The session will also consider the basics, including definitions of SEND and the SEND Code of Practice, and the national picture, sources of information and recent developments. Delegates will receive the tools to evaluate their school’s SEND provision and to consider strategic leadership, accountability, structures and processes and people management.
