an INCLUSIVE CULTURE THAT ENSURES ALL STUDENTS CAN ACCESS LEARNING AND
EXPERIENCE SUCCESS? This interactive WORKSHOP ENABLES PARTICIPANTS TO

to consider STUDENTS’ NEEDS AND IDENTIFY STRATEGIES THAT SUPPORT
STUDENT SUCCESS WITHIN AN INCLUSIVE CULTURE. Participants will also
have the opportunity to reflect on their own practice and make
connections to the ways in which best practice ensures LEARNING FOR
SEN STUDENTS. Participants will leave tools to take back to their
schools.PARTICIPANTS WILL:
