This session is aimed at school leaders, middle leaders/heads of departments responsible for inclusion or learning support specialists with an interest in Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS).
It outlines key research in the field, how to find an effective system to suit the needs of your school based on data and creating structures to ensure up-to-date information is available and used to make informed decisions in the field of special education and learning support, to ensure no child is left behind. We will also look at how to structure this over the course of the academic year, with key elements to ensure that protocols, progress checks and measures are followed by staff with confidence.
