Compulsory School Stint (For Untrained SEN Officer)
4. Compulsory School Stint (For Untrained SEN Officer)
The final part of the process for entry into the foundational training programme is a compulsory stint as an untrained SEN Officer at a school. The stint allows you to affirm your interest to be a SEN Officer, and lets us assess your suitability for the role.
During the Untrained School Stint, you will be guided by a mentor and supported by the school.
The stint generally starts upon your appointment as an untrained SEN Officer, and will continue until your enrolment in the foundational training programme.
