Attainment for Children in Care is low at all ages of assessment and the Designated Teacher is key in improving outcomes for this cohort of children. The Designated Teacher plays a critical role in helping school staff understand the things which affect how Children in Care learn and achieve.
This half-day course is an opportunity for Designated Teachers to examine the role; to become familiar with the legal framework and statutory guidance and to better understand Peterborough processes and procedures. Best practice will be explored and practical advice on topics such as preparing the Personal Education Plan, writing SMART outcomes and the effective use of the Pupil Premium Plus grant will be shared.
Delegates from all settings are welcome; Early Years, Primary, Secondary, Special and Further Education. It is ideal for those who are new to the role of Designated Teacher or those who would like a refresher.
