LearningShared: A Responsive Programme of CPLD

Here’s what is included…

Regional Leadership Networking & Development Conferences (in person)

These unique events are an opportunity for leaders at schools, colleges and settings across the country to come together for a day of sharing and development.

In addition to workshops and presentations led by colleagues including Diane Rochford OBE, Vijita Patel (Principal, Swiss Cottage School) and James Waller (Principal, Sunningdale School) there will be comprehensive case studies from schools within the community and structured roundtable discussions.

Each day will be a great opportunity to share and discuss interpretations and approaches to SEND and inclusion with other school leaders. The underlying theme of each event will be the exploration and discussion of how as leaders and practitioners we can develop and nurture truly inclusive and personalised approaches to curriculum, pedagogy and assessment, as well as systemise reflective practice and inquiry across the whole school.

The complexity threshold has undoubtedly shifted in recent years and as practitioners we need to be agile, responsive and innovative in the ways in which we support learners…

Agenda

Roundtable Discussion & Networking

The emphasis of each day will be on discussion, learning and networking… giving you lots of opportunity to meet and forge relationships with new partners and collaborators for your professional networks.

* The precise agenda and speakers for each event may vary slightly. Please get in touch with any queries

Virtual ‘Follow Up’ Events

A series of virtual events offering leaders and practitioners the opportunity to follow up on and take a ‘deeper dive’ into the key aspects and themes covered at our regional Leadership Networking & Development Conferences. Our experts will guide, steer and develop the conversation which will be punctuated by exemplification from leading schools across the community. As always collaboration and the opportunity to develop your professional network act as a key drivers for these events.

National Themed Conferences (in person)

Our national themed conferences will provide a focused in person event and opportunity for colleagues (leaders and practitioners) across the UK to come together around one of the themes raised at the regional networking & development events – e.g. an event focused on Preparing for Adulthood, etc… Our experts will lead discussion and provide expert input as we explore the topic in greater detail. In addition to comprehensive case study presentations from schools and colleges across the EfL LearningShared community, the conferences will be a fantastic opportunity to hear from, share and learn with colleagues around the country.

Regional EfL Workshop & Support Clinics (in person)

Our regional workshops offer teachers and leaders the opportunity to collaborate and network with colleagues from across their local area. Members of the EfL team will lead discussion and provide expert input as we explore what high quality evidence can look like, how it can be used to describe learning for different levels of need and share best practice around the use of EfL and Insights for Learning. Colleagues from across the community will share their own approaches with the group via Lightning Talks. The sessions will be very much guided and steered by members of the community and focus on the issues and topics most important to you!

Online Learning Platform

At the heart of the learning platform and programme are 7 modules looking at Curriculum; Pedagogy; Assessment; Leadership at all Levels; SEND Policy and Legislation; Reflective Inquiry and Wellbeing with each module containing:

The modules can be accessed anytime and from anywhere via an online learning platform and subscribing schools will be able to provide access to ALL staff across their school (as well as school governors), giving professional learning and development opportunities to your whole staff team.

LearningShared: The Power of Community

Bringing together a large, powerful community of specialist and mainstream schools, colleges, leaders & practitioners…

The Evidence for Learning and LearningShared community now comprises close to 900
specialist schools, colleges and alternative provisions across the UK, as well as a rapidly growing number of mainstream schools. Consequently the LearningShared programme (especially the events) provide a unique and brilliant opportunity for leaders and practitioners to come together to directly harness and tap into the phenomenal wealth of knowledge and experience that exists across the community.

Background

The LearningShared programme has been designed by and is led and delivered by nationally recognised practitioners and experts in our field including Prof. Barry Carpenter CBE, Diane Rochford OBE, Vijita Patel NLE (Principal, Swiss Cottage School DRC), James Waller (Headteacher, Sunningdale School) and Alistair Crawford (St Martins / St Andrews School, Whole School SEND, Oak National Academy), with contributions from Dr Tina Rae, Sharon Gray OBE, Dr Janet Rose, Laura Purser, Amanda Mordey OBE, Roz McFeeters and many more colleagues across our network. The programme draws on the wealth of knowledge and expertise and crucially the connectivity across our LearningShared community.
Illuminations, contributions and case studies are provided throughout the LearningShared programme by outstanding school leaders and practitioners from across the LearningShared community of practice.

Networking and Development
Conferences

A unique networking and collaborative learning and development opportunity. These events are an opportunity for leaders at schools, colleges and settings across the country to come together for a day of sharing and development. Each day will be a great opportunity to share and discuss interpretations and approaches to SEND and inclusion with other school leaders.

SEND in Mainstream Conference

As the complexity threshold of need grows and capacity and funding in the system continue to get ever tighter our school leaders in mainstream settings are facing more barriers and challenges than ever before to provide inclusive and aspirational provision for the most vulnerable learners.

Working with Families Conference

The relationships between home and school have perhaps never been as important as they are today. Our ‘working with families‘ national conference delves beyond the rhetoric and buzz phrases to explore what co-production really looks and perhaps more importantly feels like to the families we serve in our settings.
