Replacing the NASENCO qualification, this programme promises to equip SENCOs and Senior Leaders with the cutting-edge expertise and leadership skills needed to navigate the evolving SEND landscape and champion inclusive practices within their schools.
Designed in collaboration with leading experts and informed by the latest evidence, the NPQ curriculum will delve into key areas such as:
NPQ for SENCOs makes use of a blended delivery model consisting of face-to-face events, online study, webinars and coaching
NPQ for SENCO participants will attend 4 Face-to-Face events via the blended delivery model. Our nationwide delivery partnership network allows us to bring face-to-face training to a training centre in your region, facilitated by experienced school leaders and facilitators.
Participants access online learning and support via our virtual learning environment (VLE) Canvas. Through Canvas, participants are able to engage with their learning communities of peers and access multimedia content. They can also access research and expert-led school practice aligned to the curriculum content for the qualification and receive high-quality feedback from experienced performance coaches.
