Advantages of this course
Whilst at work, you will spend a good many hour each day in the company of other adults. It is important, therefore, that every member of the team makes an effort to ensure that the relationship they have with each person is positive and respectful. This course outlines the characteristics of effective teams and makes suggestions for creating a positive working environment.
Partnership working can often throw up issues about confidentiality and when you can, and should, share personal information about a child or their family. This course will present the current guidance on information sharing for practitioners working with children, young people, parents and carers.
A crucial aspect of supporting a child with Special Educational Needs and/or Disability is partnership working. Often, you will need to include other professionals (such as GPs and physical therapists) in the care the child receives and working with parents becomes critical to ensuring positive outcomes. This course will provide advice and guidance on working with parents of children with SEND and the different professionals you may need to talk to.
In the Activity section of the course, you will be given an opportunity to react to different scenarios and consider the best actions to take when you have concerns about a child or young person
Additional activities encourage you to reflect on your learning
There is also suggested extended reading that gives both practical information and links to websites to expand knowledge
