  Introduction

  This page is to support the needs  of learners and gives tips & strategies for different learning needs. 

  
  

  A tutor, Learning/skills coach needs to have intuitive skills to sense underlying issues behind a learners behaviour, along with helping them as situations occur. 

  
  

  This is often magnified in a classroom where learners may be dealing with behavioural and learning issues.

  
  

  What is SEN Support? SEN Support is meeting the needs of learners with special educational needs (SEN). Giving us the skills to change support where necessary for each learner. 

  
  

  This area is growing with information on a regular basis and if anyone has further information they would like added then please contact Deborah Copeland, Wendy Scott  or Kevin Rhodes.
