Developing an inclusion strategy that works for your school
15 October 2026
Online
As a condition of receiving the Inclusive Mainstream Fund (IMF), schools must publish an inclusion strategy on their website by 31 December each year. It’s also now an explicit focus of Ofsted's new inspection framework so if you haven’t established your inclusion strategy yet, or you’re keen to ensure it meets best practice, join us for this session.
Who should attend?
This session is free to attend and open to all. It’s been designed to support school and trust leaders, including headteachers, SENCOs, COOs, governors and trustees.
Why attend?
- Gain clear, actionable steps to meet Ofsted’s inspection criteria for inclusion.
- Gain support to prepare or amend your inclusion strategy in advance of the December deadline.
- Ensure you have best practice supporting policies and procedures in place that enable you to deliver your inclusion strategy and keep your school compliant.
