  • Hampshire Planning Tools for Pupils with SEND

    The planning tool supports teachers to identify an appropriate starting point and plan aspirational expectations of progress over time. It is intended that the tool is used for individual pupils with the expectation this is integrated into whole class teaching - removing barriers and enabling participation in whole class learning.

    The Rochford Review (2016) recognised the need for pupils with SEND, working below age related expectations to have ‘the opportunity to demonstrate both attainment and progress’ taking account of the ‘potential differences in the way these pupils learn’.

    Following successful use in many schools the materials have been updated to include further guidance on effective teaching strategies and we have now added a Pre-Y1 to Y1 booklet to the set.

    Professional Development Opportunities

    Professional development for effective use of the Hampshire SEND Planning Tools is recommended and can be booked through the learning zone (search SEND Planning Tool mathematics) to attend a course. Alternatively, a half day bespoke HIAS training through management partnership can be provided for senior lead teachers, SENCo and or maths manager to train colleagues. This can be delivered virtually through TEAMs.

    Please contact Kate Spencer for further information kathryn.spencer@hants.gov.uk 

    Attending a course or buying training as management partnership, includes access to all the electronic files and enables the purchase of hard copies at half price.
