Webinar - EF Strategies for SENCOs
Webinar: EF Strategies for SENCOs
This event is live on the 10th March 2023, 10.00 – 11.00 am GMT
Executive function skills are needed to perform well at school. From regulating emotions so that we are ready to learn, through to organising belongings and planning and prioritising work, it is often hard to know where executive function skills stop and the learning starts. As learning support professionals we are often tasked with helping students develop these skills. Join Victoria Bagnall – Co-founder of Connections in Mind – in this CPD accredited webinar where she will be joined by two experienced SENCOs as they share strategies that have worked for them with their students.
