The document discusses the challenges of leading inclusion and special educational needs (SEN) in schools. It notes that excellent leadership skills are needed and leadership plays a pivotal role in determining the school's ethos and improving outcomes for students with SEN. It also discusses debates around issues related to inclusion, such as whether SEN coordinators should be part of the senior leadership team and whether students with SEN should be supported in class or withdrawn for interventions. Finally, it provides guidelines for groups to plan the restructuring of an inclusion department in a challenging urban secondary school, considering the school's context, funding, staffing, management structure, and student achievement data.
INTRODUCTION
All mainstream practice needs to change in order to ensure fairer opportunity for all. Understanding inclusive practice is fundamental to the good practice development within any organisation. Furthermore, an inclusive environment is a right to which we are all entitled, and one that we all have a responsibility to make happen.

The presentation I shared with the Early Years Early Adopter Facebook group on 9th November 2021. Key messages: early communication, early years curriculum and assessment
The information contained in these slides was shared during NAEYC's 2016 Annual Conference held in Los Angeles, CA November 2-5, 2016. These slides consolidate much of the differentiated instructional information shared by SFL's Director of Early Childhood Education Initiatives, Kamna Seth, and Senior Manager, Gauri Shirali-Deo. The topic presented, Differentiated Instructional Startegies: Meeting the needs of ALL children in early childhood programs, discussed strategies for how inclusive early childhood settings can effectively meet the needs of all students including English language learners, children with developmental delays, and children who need additional enrichment.
This is a PPT regrading school readiness programme. Early childhood education is very important stage of education. The meaning, importance and policy provisions were discussed in the PPT.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
2. 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.”
Brian Lamb OBE

Leading Inclusion and SEN in any
urban school is a challenging role.
With the person next to you, share
your ideas on what you see as the
greatest challenges and key issues
for such a role.

The Inclusion Debate
The following 5 slides are issues that are related to Inclusion and that often
cause debate and discussion.
In pairs you have 1 minute per slide to discuss your own views.
12. 12
In groups of three, your task is to plan the re-structure of an Inclusion department in a complex
challenging urban secondary school.
You will then do a 2-3minute presentation to the rest of the group on your structure and the
rationale behind it.
Guidelines:
You should give careful consideration to
• Context/ Current profile of SEN population
• Available funding
• Staffing levels
• Line management structure
• Academic data on SEN population

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.
