Support for leaders, managers and practitioners

Our national Centres for Excellence in Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) provide expert support for leaders, managers and practitioners who wish to put learners with SEND at the centre of their organisation as part of a Department for Education (DfE) funded national programme.

Our flagship Centres for Excellence offer free support to leaders, managers and practitioners, as will our employer-led events.
