SEND and Alternative Provision Improvement Plan published

The Department has today published the SEND and AP Improvement Plan:

Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) and Alternative Provision (AP) Improvement Plan (publishing.service.gov.uk)

There is a specific mention of the need to ensure children with sensory impairments are supported and that the government has publicly announced the new apprenticeship.

The contracts for the providers of the MQSI from September 2023 are now in place, so the gov.uk page Mandatory qualifications: specialist teachers - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) has been updated with their details and published the revised specifications.
