We at St Christopher's Trust want to ensure that each child in our care has a deep sense of belonging.
These courses are designed to explore the issues experienced by those in school who work with children with disadvantage. They offer channels of support and access to the latest developments in best practice.
Sessions leader: Lindsay Cooper Smith
These are sessions run internally only. An opportunity for SENCos across the Trust to meet to share best practice and current learning. The Inclusion team will share updates and provide time to connect and solve.
