Watch Natalie Packer’s Inclusion Base Webinar

In May, Natalie Packer delivered a fantastic webinar focused on effective inclusion base provision on behalf of EMS. Natalie explored:

  • Types and purposes of provision 
  • Key considerations in light of the Schools White Paper and proposed SEND reforms
  • Evaluating your Inclusion Base provision

For the next two weeks, the recording of Natalie’s webinar will be publicly available, so that those of you who missed it are able to access it. Natalie was part of the group advising the Department for Education on its Inclusion Base guidance, which was released today (25/06/2026). Many of the principles shared by Natalie are reflected in the guidance, so it is a must see for all those involved in delivering inclusion base provision!

Watch the webinar until Friday 10th July here: https://youtu.be/1czm7eVt11c

EAL Evaluation

Our English as an Additional Language (EAL) self-evaluation is a comprehensive tool designed to support schools in assessing the effectiveness of their EAL provision. It has been written in partnership with Hounslow Language Service, a leading provider of EAL training and consultancy. With a growing number of students learning English as an additional language, it is crucial for schools to understand and meet their unique needs effectively. Our self-evaluation platform provides an in-depth framework for schools to reflect on their EAL practices, identify strengths, and highlight areas for improvement.
