For over 20 years, Kate Browning has been passionately committed to championing the SENCo role in schools. Over this time, she has worked as a class teacher, SENCo, Local Authority School Improvement Officer for SEN and most recently as Education Development Officer for nasen.

This week Kate joins Dale to discuss the intricacies of identification of SEND and the common mistakes made by all parties in this process.

If you have enjoyed the SENDcast, why not look into the Virtual SEND Conference, this is a conference that like the SENDcast is run by B Squared, but it covers all aspects of SEND. What makes this conference different is that it is accessed across the internet. The conference runs twice a year, in March and November and each conference has 12 highly valuable sessions designed to help you, with each session having something you can take away. You can buy tickets for future events or past events, the videos are always available. The cost for each conference is £60 and this covers the entire school, not per person. As a listener to the SENDcast, we are offering you a 10% discount, just use the code Sendcast10.

Thank you for listening, we will be back next week with another episode of the SENDcast.
