This CPD programme is fully funded by the Barnsley Schools Alliance Board. There is no charge to schools to participate and no limit to the number of people you can book on.

The programme will be delivered through a ‘train the trainer’ approach and schools will therefore need to:

•  Identify Middle Leaders who are able to train staff in school (Autumn term 2 x 2 hour webinars).
•  Allocate staff meetings/CPD time for staff training.
•  Provide the identified Middle Leaders with the time to participate in future training, time to support school staff and time for on-going communication and liaison with facilitators.

For those pupils who find engaging in academic learning challenging at the best of times returning to school/full classes will present its challenges. This 2 x 2 hour programme will:

• Provide Middle Leaders with the opportunity and training to identify the barriers that children with SEND may face when returning to school/normal class size following the lockdown period.
• Help teachers to identify the barriers to learning and ways to adapt their classroom environment, daily timetable and teaching to support children in overcoming the barriers and reengaging with learning.

Following an initial 2 hour training period, Middle Leaders will be provided with training materials to disseminate in their own school. Throughout the academic year, there will be access to a virtual platform to network and share ideas with colleagues in other schools
and access support from the facilitators.
