The careful planning of a differentiated curriculum ensures that each learner takes part in activities best suited to their ability. Regular monitoring of the learners progress enables teachers to plan appropriate activities.
At times some learners will face more significant problems, where extra help will be required. If extra support is needed the school will contact the parents by telephone call or letter, inviting them to discuss the provision of additional lessons with the ALNCo (Additional Learning Needs Coordinator).
The ALN Act and wider ALN Transformation Programme will transform the separate systems for special educational needs (SEN) in schools or PRUs and learning difficulties and/or disabilities (LDD) in further education to create a unified system for supporting learners from 0 to 25 with ALN.
