Leading and developing an inclusive primary science curriculum for pupils with SEND NY043 / A21
Summary
Teaching pupils with any degree of SEND can present challenges for supporting them to access the entire curriculum.
Alongside colleagues at the Primary Science Teaching Trust (PSTT), we have developed a two day programme aimed specifically at primary teachers which will cover aspects of differentiation, vocabulary development, support to engage within group tasks and ways to adapt practical tasks for pupils of all abilities.
During the course, we will focus on ways to ensure all pupils can access science activities and take an active part in the learning. You will also explore differentiated assessment techniques and adaptations for pupils with sensory difficulties with University of Warwick teaching fellow, Sally Spicer.
This is a residential course, fees include meals and accommodation for the duration of the course.
