This webinar will provide headteachers, senior leaders, science leads, teachers and practitioners with advice and practical guidance on supporting the participation of all pupils in science lessons in mainstream schools, including those with physical, intellectual or developmental disabilities, such as autism. 

The SEND code of practice 2015 highlights the importance of including pupils with SEND ‘in all the opportunities available to other children and young people so they can achieve well’. Full access to the science curriculum has the potential to enhance not only pupil attainment, but also teamworking skills, social interaction, self-esteem and wellbeing.

In this webinar, Dr Katy Bloom, senior lecturer and school learning and teaching lead with Advanced Skills Teacher status, will explain how the needs of pupils with wide-ranging SEND can be accommodated in secondary science lessons so that they can access the same high-quality curriculum as their peers.
