Ed Balls commissions review into SEN teacher training
September 2009
Children's Secretary Ed Balls has commissioned an independent review into the supply of teachers trained to meet the needs of children with severe learning disabilities.
Toby Salt, deputy chief executive of the National College for Leadership of Schools and Children's Services, will look into the supply of teachers trained to meet the needs of children with severe learning disabilities (SLD) and profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD).
The Specialist Schools and Academies Trust will also be running a £550,000 project to share good practice in teaching and learning for children with the most complex learning disabilities.
