Aspiring Specialist Teacher in a Mainstream Setting

School leaders, locally and nationally, are innovating and developing provision that can support children with more complex SEND needs to access education in their local community.

In provisions of this nature, e.g. resource bases and enhanced pathways, teachers are educating children and young people in a space between 'mainstream' and 'specialist'.

This course, specifically designed for teachers, will support teachers in transition from a mainstream classroom teaching role to a more specialist teaching role in a mainstream school.

Programme format

This multi-part programme includes four face-to-face sessions, one virtual session, and a school visit during the early Spring term. An outline table of dates, times and locations can be found below:

Audience: aimed at teachers who have at least two years teaching experience in a mainstream setting (primary teacher focus but secondary teachers are welcome). Please note, the programme is not intended for SENCOs.

*This programme is free for colleagues working in River Learning Trust schools. For other attendees the cost of the programme is £150 per person.

Most schools and trusts run their own CPD programmes. This programme is being run by River Learning Trust with places offered to colleagues in other schools in partnership with OTSA. Do you have any spare places on school or trust led events/programmes that you would open up to colleagues in other schools? If so, please get in touch with us at info@otsa.org.uk

Payment is required at the time of booking by credit card, debit card or Paypal. Unless otherwise stated, a ticket gives admission to one person at face-to-face and online events. In the event that you share an online event link with other people who then attend the event, including sharing your screen, or you arrive at a venue without a ticket and we are able to admit you, we will invoice you or your organisation for additional tickets retrospectively.

Refunds

No refunds will be given with less than 30 days notice.

In the event of a refund request, please note that the Eventbrite booking fee of 6.95% plus 0.59p per ticket is not refundable.

To keep our event fees as low as possible, we are not able to issue invoices for payment by cheque or bank transfer and we are not able to reserve places without payment.

We strongly recommend that you take out 'event ticket insurance' which may cover the cost of your fee should you be unable to attend the event.
