The NASENCO Provider Partnership
Why should you study for the National Senco Award?
SENCOs who are graduates from Provider Partnership NASENCO courses tell us that in addition to their qualification, they gain knowledge, understanding, confidence and kudos, which all support them to progress the SENCO role in their setting. Many graduates also report that the connections and networks they make with fellow students are invaluable far beyond the completion of the course.
The content within all courses which lead to the NASENCO qualification is guided by the NASENCO Learning Outcomes. These learning outcomes were published by the National College for Teaching and Leadership in 2014 and are available to download here; https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/national-award-for-sen-co-ordination-learning-outcomes
As the NASENCO course is at a Postgraduate Level, the study is of a specialist nature with an emphasis on linking SENCO practice with theory and research. As such, NASENCO courses are not designed to teach you how to do the role of a SENCO nor how to complete specific tasks or paperwork. NASENCO courses which are quality assured by the Provider Partnership will provide you with the theoretical underpinning and understanding of evidence and research to enable you to be a reflective and effective SENCO who can lead SEN provision in your setting, to provide the best outcomes for the children and young people you work with.
