Special educational needs and disability

‘At the heart of education is the capacity to transform a child’s life for the better’. – (Professor Barry Carpenter, OBE). In the 21st Century, the special educational needs of children in our schools are becoming more complex. The SSAT works closely with schools to improve outcomes for children, enhance teacher quality, develop students as independent learners, introduce innovative approaches to curriculum content, design and delivery, and showcase best and next practice from across the country and around the world.
