Jenny Scott is a former teacher, SENCo, Senior leader, SEND Advisor and now owns her own SEND Consultancy service.

She has run numerous workshops and training sessions for schools and local authorities. Session 1 - Enhancing your school’s systematic phonics scheme to meet the needs of all learners This session is for experienced SENCos, phonic leads and reading leaders. Friday 4th October 2024 In this session we focus on strategic approaches to raising attainment in reading for pupils with reading difficulties. We explore effective strategies to enhance and embed your school’s chosen systematic synthetic phonics schemes whilst ensuring fidelity to the scheme. Strategies range from adaptations, consolidation activities and rigorous diagnostic assessment to inform planning. Session 2 - The Reading Fluency Project This session is for experienced SENCos, phonic leads and reading leaders. Friday 15th November 2024 The reading fluency project is an evidence informed intervention, aimed at improving pupil’s reading accuracy, fluency and confidence. The project includes easily accessible resources, complete with graded texts to ensure that pupils read at the right level for them. The project is suitable for pupils with reading ages between 6 and 12 years. Progressive fluency strategies make it ideal for struggling readers. Impact data from participating schools shows overwhelmingly positive progress, with some pupils making over 2 years progress in just two terms. The project also has had a positive impact on pupil’s confidence in reading with pupils reporting increasing confidence, engagement and enjoyment. Session 3 - ‘All teachers are teachers of pupils with SEND’ Adaptive teaching: Developing effective whole school approaches to meet the needs of all learners, including pupils with SEND. This session is for new and experienced SENCos & Senior leaders. Friday 17th January 2025 This workshop revisits the EEF’s Five a day strategies and explores practical ideas to implement this approach across a whole school. It is an ideal follow up to the session delivered last year but can also be accessed as a standalone session. The workshops are run as a course but individual sessions can be booked. Please state on the booking form which sessions are required if only wanting individual sessions. Venue TBC | |||
