Don't let's underestimate what pupils with SEND are capable of!

There's plenty of evidence that they enjoy doing demanding work.

Yet how often are we tempted to make things easy?

I'll be sharing how we can offer all our pupils a rich curriculum, including those with lower starting points.

[Yorks100 @LeadYorks100]

I've been gathering feedback from headteachers and trust leaders on how the programme is landing for them; to what extent are Yorks100 participants bringing back their learning and sharing it with their current schools?

[Starbeck Primary Academy @StarbeckPrimary]

Several of our Year 5 children, following our work with ‘Energy Heroes’ and the NSAT Next Generation Board, led two assemblies today to share their ideas about how we can save energy at school. We have some exciting things planned including our very first ‘Green Day’ 🟢
