Summer Term Ofsted Briefings: Meeting SEND requirements

Get the latest and most up-to-date information from Ofsted on a termly basis

In September 2015, Ofsted made far-reaching changes to the way it inspects schools, introducing a common inspection framework and shorter inspections for schools judged good at their last full inspection.

SCHOOLS NorthEast has set up a series of termly events with Ofsted to support schools in the region to stay current on all information regarding inspections. Each event will include a general update, followed by further discussion on a particular theme.

These termly update sessions will be held in three venues across the region (North, Central and South) to maximise the opportunity for school leaders to attend.

Our summer term briefings will include a focussed discussion around meeting SEND requirements. There will also be contributions from North East Head Teachers who have recently been inspected under the new framework.

The three events will take place on:

Central region
Date: Wednesday 6 July 2016
Time: 14:00 – 16:00
Venue: The Durham Centre, Belmont Industrial Estate, Durham, DH1 1TN

South of the region
Date: Thursday 7 July 2016
Time: 09:30 – 11:30
Venue: Inspire2 Learn, Normanby Road, South Bank, Middlesbrough, TS6 9AE

North of the region
Date: Thursday 7 July 2016
Time: 14:00 – 16:00
Venue: The Northumberland Church of England Academy, Academy Road, Ashington NE63 9FZ

These events are open to delegates from schools across the region. The cost of attendance is £15+VAT per delegate. Partner Schools receive a discounted rate of £10+VAT.
