About this Event

SEND and inclusion are the most pressing issues of our time. A system in crisis due to high levels of demand and strained services, it is children, families and teachers that feel the impact.

Join Haringey Education Partnership for our annual SEND & Inclusion conference hosted at Regent Hall, London, for an event that will bring together school leaders, practitioners, and experts to unpack key national updates, sector innovations and practice, keeping you ahead of the curve.

Inclusion and SEND are rooted at the heart of the new Ofsted inspection framework, and effective provision is the strategic driver behind outstanding whole-school improvement.

This carefully curated programme, which is both strategic and practical, is focused on delivering key insights and strategies you can take back to school immediately.

What you’ll cover at the conference:

  • Ofsted Clarity & Accountability: Gain essential insights into the new Ofsted framework and what these changes mean in practice, to help ensure your leadership and provision are exceptional.
  • Targeted Strategies for Practitioners: Acquire practical tools to confidently address specific needs, focusing on autism and dyslexia, empowering your staff to support all learners effectively.
  • Innovative Provision: Explore cutting-edge research and best practices for developing and equipping Alternative Resource Bases (ARBs) in mainstream settings, ensuring all students have access to high-quality, specialised support.

Speakers will include:

  • Margaret Mulholland, SEND & Inclusion Specialist at ASCL (Association of School and College Leaders)
  • Professor Karen Guldberg, Head of the School of Education and Professor of Autism Studies, Director of the Autism Centre for Education and Research at the University of Birmingham
  • Amjad Ali, experienced SENCo, senior leader and education trainer
  • Cassie Young, Executive Inclusion Lead for Our Community MAT, and Inclusion Lead for Kent
  • Lucia Santi, Sarah Shaughnessy, and the HEP Research Team
