Written by SENCOs for SENCOs and other school leaders, this book shares innovative, strategic and practical whole-school developments that have been trialed and reviewed through research with colleagues, students and families.

Each chapter is written by an experienced SENCO school leader. Their accounts of the developments they carried out and the research evidence they collected to measure impact are presented accessibly and succinctly. These developments include:

• Preparing for Ofsted Inspection

• SEN policy and whole-school practice: what are staff doing and what do they know?

• Whole-school referral for SEND Support

• Capturing voices. Increasing all students’ experience of belonging in school

• Exclusion: The impact of limited wider-life experiences

SENCO Leadership: Implementing Whole-School Practice is an indispensable resource for all SENCOs and other school leaders wanting to provide the best learning environment for their whole school community.
