This is an absolute must read. It describes what most teachers see happening in schools.
Children given support that is ineffective and is likely going to make their learning experience, and outcomes, much worse
There is an SEND crisis in schools, but not in the way many people think.

I enjoyed writing this post.
Subject knowledge is such an important factor into becoming an effective teacher.
There should be much more of a focus on this when designing CPD.
Take into account your individual departments when planning.
