| Abstract: | This report presents five recommendations for mainstream primary and secondary schools seeking to improve their provision for pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND). Some of the recommendations included will also be helpful for pupils in special schools. The recommendations are: (1) Create a positive and supportive environment for all pupils without exception; (2) Build an ongoing, holistic understanding of your pupils and their needs; (3) Ensure all pupils have access to high quality teaching; (4) Complement high quality teaching with carefully selected small-group and one-to-one interventions; and (5) Work effectively with teaching assistants. The focus of the report is on improving the quality of teaching and learning in mainstream classrooms and ensuring pupils are full members of the school community who have a rich and positive experience.
