Leadership
“The leadership of inclusion and SEN in schools not only demands excellent skills, but also plays a pivotal role in determining the ethos of the school, improving behaviour and the outcomes of children with SEN.”

HighlightsBest 8 inc. Eng & Maths showing spread by SEN
• SA+ BESD largest underachieving group
• Although listed as SA+, few interventions actually took place
• Significant SEN underachievement at KS3
• There are no school based interventions for BESD pupils except counselling. The school relies on external BESD consultants/ mentors/ Educational Psychologists.
• Boys are significantly over represented on the SEN register
• Local Authority SEN interventions have been reduced
• The vast majority of SEN intervention is through a large number of teaching assistants. The quality of this resource is mixed.
