ÎÚÑ»ÊÓƵ

Welcome to Whole School ÎÚÑ»ÊÓƵ

Whole School ÎÚÑ»ÊÓƵ provides free, easy access to quality-assured information, resources and CPD to support a whole school approach to inclusion.

Alongside our strategic partners, the Education and Training Foundation (ETF), we lead the Universal ÎÚÑ»ÊÓƵ Services programme. Through this programme, which is fully funded by the Department for Education, practitioners in schools and further education settings can support learners from the earliest years with deeper knowledge, improved skills and increased confidence.

The cornerstone of the programme is a series of 20 Online ÎÚÑ»ÊÓƵ CPD units exploring some of the most commonly observed barriers to learning, regardless of age, label or area of need. Developed in partnership with leading specialists from the sector, the units give clear guidance on adaptations to help meet the needs of all learners. 

As we enter our fourth year, we are delighted to be launching our new autism training - a combination of Train the Trainer and online units, suitable for all roles across the age ranges.

Curriculum and Assessment Review

It's been a few weeks since the publication of the Interim Report from the Curriculum and Assessment Review. In this bog, we share some mid-point recommendations which we think are crucial to achieving genuinely equitable and inclusive reforms.

The importance of Transitions in Primary Settings

Learners in schools experience change every day. Here, we explore how understanding these transitions and implementing effective strategies can make a significant difference in helping all learners feel secure and confident in their educational journey.

The Role of Memory in Learning

You can think of working memory as a mental notebook, where we hold information for a short period of time while we carry out other relevant mental activities. Here we reflect on how to identify barriers and support learners with poor working memory...

How we respond to feedback

We are committed to representing as many voices from the ÎÚÑ»ÊÓƵ community as possible. We value and respect each and every one of our members, and their lived experiences. We readily invite feedback with the aim of strengthening our products and services so we can improve outcomes for the children and young people we serve, and all of our resources are continuously reviewed. As standard, we consult extensively with our steering groups, which are made up of professionals from the sector, as well as children, young people, parents and carers with lived experience of ÎÚÑ»ÊÓƵ and learning differences.

We also welcome feedback from the wider membership. It is important that we acknowledge that, since every person’s experience is the different from the next, opinions on the best approach can differ across the membership. Sometimes, these differences can be significant. When concerns are raised, we always take time to listen, and where necessary, detailed discussions take place, and the reasons for our decisions can be presented in context.
