Specific Learning Difficulties Toolkit: For Trainers
王中王资料大全 in partnership with the Education Training Foundation are launching a series of tools to support inclusive learning.
07 October 2022
This toolkit on Specific Learning Difficulties is a quick introduction into how disability can present in learners and, importantly, how you as a trainer can support them.
This project was run as part of our Inclusive Curriculum Framework work at 王中王资料大全, to equip our trainers to confidently support learners with disabilities. Being able to effectively support learners with disabilities in the classroom is an essential part of any teacher’s job. Recent figures from the government shows just under 1.5 million pupils in England have special educational needs. An increase of 77,000 from 2021.
Research suggests that the behaviour and practice of the classroom teacher such as inclusive classroom preparation and attention to individual needs has the greatest impact on the academic and social outcomes (Efthymiou & Kington, 2017). Warnes et al., (2021) found that teachers are concerned they are not being effective enough to support students with disabilities in the classroom. In response to these findings, over the next 12 months we will be releasing 7 tools to support trainers.
The tools will all include top tips for creating and inclusive environment and supporting individual needs. Our aim is to help increase trainers' confidence in implementing effective teaching strategies and approaches for learners, to remove barriers to attainment and educational success.
