Regional Implementation of the Proposed Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLD) Support Model For Primary and Post Primary Schools 07/06/20161

Aims of the session 1.Inform schools of the proposed regional model for supporting schools and pupils with specific learning difficulties in literacy 2.Consult with schools regarding the proposed regional model 3.Answer any questions and discuss any concerns that may arise 07/06/20162

Overview of the session Background and context Proposed Regional SpLD (Literacy) Service Delivery Model - primary and post-primary Supporting evidence and research Implementation of the proposed regional model – primary and post-primary Evaluation of the proposed regional model – primary and post-primary 07/06/20163

Background and context (1) Over recent years there has been a move towards commonality, consistency and equity of approach across the education and library boards in addressing special educational needs This has largely happened within the context of the establishment of ESA 07/06/20164

Key initiatives Every School a Good School (April 2009) Provisional Criteria for initiating and making statements (September 2009) Good Practice Guidelines (September 2009) Count, Read, Succeed ( March 2011) Review of SEN and Inclusion - emphasis on early identification and capacity building (ongoing) Background and context (2) 07/06/20165

Background and context (3) SEN Resource File ASPIRE Stranmillis and St Mary’s SEN CPD Literacy Project DE Signature Initiative for Literacy and Numeracy 07/06/20166

Background and context (4) Department of Education Resource Allocation Plan targets By March 2012 ‘devise a common model of support and provision for pupils with Specific Learning Difficulties that is consistent with the aims of the Literacy and Numeracy Strategy.’ By March 2013 ‘ develop a regional implementation plan to effect the future delivery of support and provision for pupils with specific literacy difficulties that is consistent with the aims of the literacy/ numeracy strategy in order to implement the plan with effect from September 2013.’ 07/06/20167

Proposed Regional SpLD Service Delivery Model The proposed model has interconnected elements Capacity Building Targeted pupil support Intensive pupil support (primary pupils) Supported provision of assistive technology (post primary pupils) There may be exceptional circumstances 07/06/20168

9 Proposed Model of Service Delivery for SpLD Support Continuum Capacity Building  Leadership and Management  Links with Board services  Dyslexia awareness raising  Dyslexia friendly classrooms: reasonable adjustments and strategies including assistive technology Targeted Support  Individual pupil advice for SENCo, class teacher, classroom assistants, parents/carers;  supporting schools to put in place relevant and purposeful measures Intensive Pupil Support – Primary Pupils  Baseline diagnostic and standardised assessment  Intervention Plan  Class teacher support for IEP target setting Assistive Technology- Post –Primary Pupils Underpinning Core Principles: Promoting capacity building in schools. Developing progressive independence in partnership with pupils, teachers, parents and other services and agencies.

Proposed Regional SpLD Model- Capacity Building Leadership and management – regarding SpLD literacy issues Links with Board services and SENCo clusters Dyslexia Awareness training Dyslexia Friendly Classrooms: reasonable adjustments and strategies including assistive technology Stranmillis and St Mary’s Literacy Project 07/06/201610

Proposed Regional SpLD Service Delivery Model Use of Assistive Technology can provide pupils who have persistent literacy difficulties with strategies and tools that enable them to access the curriculum can be used by teachers to modify and adapt the presentation of learning materials can promote independent learning 07/06/201611

Proposed Regional SpLD Model- Targeted Support Individual pupil advice for SENCos, class teachers, classroom assistants and parents and carers Support for school staff to put in place relevant and purposeful measures Targeted support will help schools to ‘address continuing underachievement with support from outside the school’ (Count,Read:Succeed 5.1 March 2011) 07/06/201612

Intensive Pupil Support primary pupils (1) Pupils will initially continue to be identified on the basis of the provisional criteria and referral made to the SpLD literacy service The SpLD literacy service will carry out baseline diagnostic and standardised assessments leading to an intervention plan that will inform the pupil’s Education Plan Direct intensive intervention will be provided by the SpLD literacy service and the pupils progress monitored and reviewed 07/06/201613

Intensive Pupil Support primary pupils (2) Research of intensive intervention models has shown that (Brooks,2007; Torgesen et al,2001; Hatcher et al, 1994) - Intensive intervention should lead to accelerated learning for pupils Short sessions over a set period of time appear to result in optimum impact Intensive intervention is complementary to normal instruction, rather than a replacement, and teachers should monitor progress to ensure tuition is beneficial 07/06/201614

Proposed Intensive Pupil Support Primary Model (1) 07/06/ lessons per week Review after each block of teaching will evaluate pupil progress and determine future action A maximum of 3 blocks of intervention is anticipated Blocks of 8 weeks of intervention

Implementation of proposed Primary Model 07/06/ Year 1 – Sept pre-implementation phase (will involve a number of schools) Year 2 – Sept 2014 – progressive implementation Year 3 – Sept 2015 – full implementation

Provision of Assistive Technology Post-Primary Pupils Emerging evidence and research (1) “ Where dyslexic difficulties persist post transfer from primary to secondary school, children will benefit where schools are imaginative, eg the use of assistive technology such as programmes that have a spell checker, speech recognition, text to speech”. Rose Report (2009) 07/06/201617

Supported Provision of Assistive Technology – Post-Primary Pupils The proposed new arrangements will provide, as part of the continuum of support, provision of assistive technology to promote pupils’ progressive independence Direct teaching and/or associated funding may remain appropriate in some cases 07/06/201618

Transitional Arrangements Identification of pupils at Year 7 who meet the requirements for supported assistive technology Identification of pupils who meet the criteria for making a Statement who could avail of supported assistive technology in post-primary school Identification of pupils at post primary who meet criteria and who would benefit from support of assistive technology 07/06/201619

Implementation of the proposed Post-Primary Model 07/06/201620

Evaluation of Proposed Regional SpLD Model 07/06/2016 Equality Screening of Model – screened out with mitigation On-going formal and informal consultation with principals, parents, tutors and pupils Gather data/information on SpLD measures across the 5 ELBs to compare progress pre/post implementation of the Model, and to benchmark across Boards, including: –Progressive independence of pupils –Increased capacity building in schools –Quality teaching and learning –Outcomes for pupils 21
