Are you having trouble transitioning your child with autism, special needs, or challenging behavior into mainstream education? It’s time to get rid of the fear and stress!

We offer a comprehensive course for educators, administrators, and support staff to learn about Special Education Needs and Disabilities (SEND). The purpose of this program is to help you better understand inclusion in the educational setting and to assist you in promoting it.

You’ll start your journey with an in-depth understanding of SEND. You will learn about various types of disabilities as well as the legal frameworks and types of support that are required to support these needs. It provides teachers with basic practical skills, such as managing children’s behavior and techniques to manage inclusive classrooms, as well as knowledge about dealing with children with specific learning disabilities.

In addition to understanding the stark differences between inclusive and non-inclusive practices, you will also gain an understanding of legislation to support children in early childhood settings. We will also guide you step-by-step on how to adjust your child to mainstream school using various strategies quickly. You will receive real-life visual aids, real-life examples, social stories, and so much more information to assist your child in their journey towards an inspiring inclusion education.

This course will cover key health and safety acts and regulations, including the Health and Safety at Work Act, the Manual Handling Regulations, the Equality Act, Special Education Needs (SEN) Code of Practice, providing a legal framework to assist students with SEND.

The “We are all special” approach can be used by educators to avoid stigmatizing, excluding, or bullying students with special educational needs. In a diverse classroom, diversity is a synonym for understanding, integration, and opportunity. The course will provide a general overview of main disabilities, including learning disabilities (dyslexia, dyspraxia), emotional and behavioral disorders (ADD, ADHD, depression, bipolar disorder), intellectual disabilities (ADHD, ADD), physical disabilities (physical impairments), developmental disabilities (Autism).

You’ll also gain insights into safeguarding children with SEND, sustainable school travel, emergency procedures such as PEEPs, and ensuring that health and safety laws are embedded into practice. You’ll explore how international schools can support children with SEND, ensuring inclusion is prioritized in a global context.

Additionally, you will learn how to adopt a trauma-informed approach by understanding how trauma impacts learning and applying classroom-wide and whole-school strategies to create emotionally secure environments. The course also dives into maths-specific learning difficulties such as dyscalculia, maths anxiety, and memory barriers, and provides tools for identifying and supporting numeracy challenges. Finally, you’ll understand adaptive teaching by exploring the difference between proactive and reactive strategies, using scaffolding techniques, and designing flexible, inclusive instruction that maintains high expectations for all learners.
