Semester 2

Trefnydd: Mr Clive Underwood

The module aims to acquaint course members with an understanding of the meanings of the terms inclusion, inclusive education, ALN, and SEND. Course members will learn, through research, about the range of reasons why some pupils may experience additional learning needs, and the approaches and methods used by schools and other agencies to support learners with ALN.

Course members will examine different case studies, exploring a variety of approaches to inclusion and ALN, and are encouraged to critically evaluate responses to pupil learning needs, within the context of recent research and statutory governmental guidance and legislation.

By adopting this approach, course members are encouraged to reflect on the key issues involved in inclusion and the provision of services and education to pupils with ALN / SEND in Wales and further afield.

The module includes:

• An introduction to the concepts and terminology used in the field, relating to inclusion, inclusive education, ALN and SEND.
• A history of inclusion and inclusive education
• An examination of the ALN/SEND system in schools in Wales and further afield
• An exploration and evaluation of different types of provision for learners with additional learning needs
• Assessment of a multi-agency approach to supporting learners with additional learning needs
