SEND and inclusion training for mainstream schools - GOV.UK

The training package is part of the government’s special educational needs and disability (SEND) reform plans for an inclusive education system and aims to support teachers and teaching assistants to:

  • build confidence and expertise in inclusive teaching practices
  • create positive, supportive and inclusive learning environments
  • understand and respond effectively to individual needs

Training sessions are designed to be delivered by an in-house facilitator and are adaptable to suit your setting and team learning needs. Most sessions take around an hour to deliver and can be run as standalone sessions or combined into a training day. We encourage schools to deliver the training, but it is not mandatory.

New materials will be released in early 2027. View the full list of training content at List of topics covered in SEND and inclusion in-house training: mainstream schools and post-16 settings - GOV.UK
