Event description
This network is aimed at all practitioners, leaders and managers who have specific responsibility for overseeing vulnerable/disadvantaged children within their setting. It is also for those practitioners who would like to develop their knowledge of working with vulnerable /disadvantaged children. You will have the opportunity to attend three network sessions over the year.

Building on the success of the previous Disadvantaged Group Networks where we have explored specific groups through spotlights, we are now aiming to consider how a variety of approaches can enable you to enhance the progress of children who may be vulnerable or disadvantaged in your setting. These network sessions will be an opportunity for you to consolidate, reflect and respond to the needs of the children who may be vulnerable or disadvantaged in order to raise aspirations to enable all children to reach their potential. They will support you to move beyond monitoring and data, by understanding different approaches you will be informed to strategically implement changes in response to the specific needs of your cohort.

Session 1 – (Feb) Focus – Responsive planning – inclusive quality first teaching
Session 2 – (May) Focus – Interventions - to target or not to target?
Session 3 - (Nov) Focus – Research informed practice – what works for vulnerable children?

Each session will aim to include current research and thinking and will provide you with ways in which you can proactively narrow the gap for children in your care who are at the most disadvantaged. They will provide you with the tools you need to become an Early Years Pupil Premium Champion.

YOU WILL NEED TO BOOK ONTO EACH SESSION SEPARATELY.
