School staff attending will understand why PCP can be so effective and have the knowledge and confidence to put this into place on behalf of children and young people in schools.

A two-part training course to understand the theory and practice of Precision Teaching (PT) as a formative assessment strategy to enhance basic skills. There is an expectation that all delegates will undertake an assignment using the PT approach between sessions 1 and 2.

To explore legislative processes and national guidance relating to the statutory and pre-statutory aspects of the SEND Code of Practice (2015) as underpinned by the Children and Families Act (2014). This session aims to explore the myths, facts and data that underpin national narratives around SEND and offer practical solutions for SENCos working directly in this context.

Staff will be able to have a better understanding, knowledge and skills in the use of relational approaches (such as PACE/Emotion Coaching), whilst feeling confident in responding appropriately and immediately to incidents where children display ‘big’ emotions and behaviours.

This course is a series of practical sessions designed to support all class teachers in developing evidence-based approaches to classroom management. It is not for any specific group of teaching staff: those who are new to the profession (such as ECTs) or others who have been teaching for many years are equally welcome. The course is split into 5 sessions. All five sessions are necessary to complete this course.

We are offering a network group for problem-solving, ways forward, ideas and inspiration led by experienced MAST Family Learning Mentors and a Senior EP.

In this session, we will examine the science of sleep, what is a good quality sleep, how much sleep children & young people need, consider how we might support pupils with SEND to sleep better and reflect on how we can work with children, young people, and families to support them in getting better sleep.

The making sense of autism training will give you a better understanding and awareness of autism and the way it affects pupils in school. This session is charged at £32 + VAT for MAST subscribed schools, non-MAST price on request.
