15th annual SENCO Update conference

Thursday 25 May 2017
Hilton London Wembley, London

We are also running a SENCO Masterclass PLUS on Friday 26th May. 

Why is this conference relevant?

As we head into the final year of implementation of the reforms, now is the time for SENCOs to take stock and come together to reflect on how to effectively meet the needs of learners. This is your opportunity to learn how to support staff deliver QFT and leave with a renewed focus on how to become an inclusive school.


What can I expect?

Attend in-depth keynotes with leading experts and a choice of over 12 practical workshops including:

  • How to provide a curriculum that meets need and explore alternative pathways
  • Strategies to support staff to deliver high-quality, differentiated teaching
  • Evidence-based and research-driven strategies to support the four broad areas of need
  • Best practice and new ideas for supporting students through transition
  • Build your leadership skills as a SENCO and manage 'top down' pressure

Plus, our SENCO Masterclass is back for a second year!

Have you been a SENCO for 5+ years? Ready to take your professional development to the next level? Are you up for the challenge?
