Buildings will be welcome. But it is the training and support of staff that will have the greatest impact on the most vulnerable students.

There is a lot of untapped wisdom out there. HTs who have a great deal of mileage in the role and the potential to support new heads or those facing challenges.
Our founder, James Pope, is interviewed in this podcast for @thekeysupport.bsky.social
James talks about his experience as a school leader, the challenges faced by those who head up to schools, and some lessons that our system needs to learn.

Hopefully they will recognise what's driving the growth on BlueSky and preserve it.

Mentioning that I am a Special School Head seems to give people a safe space to speak about the #SEND of their own or someone they know.

It is important to respect this feeling of trust as individuals are putting themselves in a vulnerable place.

I’m always happy to listen.
I think I have a SEND magnet - very frequently when I’m out with my grandsons I meet parents who it turns out are struggling to confirm if their child has SEND or to get help. 1/2

Let’s get this hashtag back up and running now we’re all in a safer space!

Great post & excellent.

All behaviours are communication.

This has been known about for so long, yet practice in #schools, even in #SEND schools, is still lacking.

ALL behaviours are communication. This is still an area I see massively misunderstood in far too many schools😞sanctioning a child for unmet needs is never OK. It’s discriminatory at worst and cruel at best - not a good look. I also question how it fits with Teaching Standards🫤 #SEND #autism #ADHD
