Films and Launch Presentations
The filmed presentations will be useful for anyone wishing to find out more about the toolkit – including some of the reasons why the toolkit is important and what Education Scotland (HMIE)’s expectations are from schools in supporting learners with additional support needs.
These film clips can easily be incorporated into professional development sessions in schools and local authorities about the toolkit, as well as used by individual teachers and parents.
