The Inclusive Practice Toolkit has been designed to give guidance on the provision that should be in place in a mainstream classroom for different types and levels of SEND need. The toolkit doesn't form a ‘tick list’ structure, but a framework that can be used to guide support for children and young people with SEND.
If a child or young person’s needs are significant, then it isn't a requirement to consider suggested actions/provisions at the lower levels of need. If a school and parent/carer agree that support must be started at a higher stage, then this should be done as required.
Further consideration must be made towards pupils who may be withdrawn or masking their SEND needs - relationships and coproduction with parent/carers are particularly paramount to support this cohort.
