Transforming support for children and young people in Warwickshire

Do you work with children or young people with special educational needs and disabilities or those with safeguarding needs?

If so, did you know that Warwickshire County Council have co-designed a webpage where all staff from education settings can access resources and training on SEND and safeguarding needs. There are a variety of resources in each area to provide advice, guidance and support as well as courses to promote awareness and knowledge. 

The courses are designed to help enhance skills to effectively teach pupils in both mainstream and specialist settings and are relevant for professionals from different disciplines working with children with disabilities or special needs and their families.

The council are also offering select free specialist training to all Warwickshire schools as part of a countywide programme to support children and young people including those with Special Educational Needs or Disabilities. 

There are a range of courses available including Autism Spectrum Awareness, Youth Mental Health First Aid, An Introduction to Restorative and Relational Practice and Adverse Childhood Experiences. A set number of spaces will be available for each education setting.
