Childminders – Special Educational Needs and Disability: What do I need to know and do about Statutory Requirements?
Target audience
Childminders
Course outline:
This is the first of a series of three training sessions, specifically for Childminders, focusing on key principles of the SEND Code of Practice (0-25 years) that you need to know and do to support you with the inclusion of children with SEND currently in your provision or prepare for children with SEND who may access your provision in the future.
The first of these focuses on what you need to know and do about your statutory duties in relation to children with SEND.
