SEN Green paper SEN reform for unit 302
 

Hi all, I'm new here so I'm hoping you guys can help me out, Ive just started my Level 3 Diploma in Support Teaching and Learning and as part of unit 302 I have to read the SEN Green Paper (all 172 pages of it!!!!) and comment on the main points.... any help is greatly appreciated I have started the course four months late and need to complete unit 302 by Tuesday!!! Eak!

Hi, you can download the two documents from education.gov.uk here - SEND 2011


The main points or categories are:

1. Early identification & assessment
2. Giving parents contriol
3. Learning & achieving
4. Preparing for adulthood
5. Services working together for families

The somewhat odd, 'easy read' version clarifies information.

If it helps there are article pages for each category here: http://www.education.gov.uk/schools/...91/green-paper and about the changes or reform here - SEN reform

There is insightful opinion to read on Optimus-education.com and looks at features such as:

• The ending of School Action, School Action Plus, statements of SEN and IEPs
• New single assessment process and education, health and care plans implemented
• New funding process
• Existing SEN Code of practice to be updated
• Improved training

Catch-up on 4 months is a sizeable jump, best wishes with study, please post when needed xx

Thank you so much
