Welcome Gillian!
You'll find it a bit quiet at present but that will change once term
starts again!
Cheers

Hello to all members!

I am introducing myself to the forum, having previously used archives,
always intending to subscribe. At last I have some time to get started!

I am SENCo (soon to become Inclusion Manager) at a large Primary school
in
Lancashire. Having recently returned from a holiday, I am just about
summoning up the energy to commence pre-autumn term planning.

I have now been SENCo for 12 months, which was an extremely difficult
period
in my career. The post has been extremely demanding and I suspect that
it
will not become any easier with my new role. 

 Previous to being SENCo, I have taught in the school for 27 years
covering
every year group, most recently Foundation. I was Learning Support
Teacher
in the school for 12 years, working part-time whilst my family was
young.

I have found the archives most useful and hope to be able to share
thoughts
and ideas over the coming months.

Best wishes.

Gillian
