The graduated approach briefings are aimed at SENDCos and other staff members of educational settings, who support the needs of children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) in Lincolnshire. The briefings focus on removing barriers to learning and implementing effective special educational provision by embedding a robust graduated approach across educational settings.

Future meetings

Book onto the final MS Teams events for this academic year in July here

Graduated approach briefings occur regularly throughout the year, starting in September this year and taking place approximately each half term.  

The bulk of these will be delivered by MS Teams.

When you follow the link below, you will find that there are two options for each of the five rounds of briefings across the year.  You only need to choose one briefing for each round as the content will be identical.  

Book onto MS Teams events for the next academic year

Please ensure you book onto each meeting you wish to attend to ensure you receive the Teams link and agenda for those meetings.  

We are also providing the opportunity again for you to choose one of the face to face April briefings, subject to spaces being available (choose 24th or 29th April and if you find you cannot later attend, please make sure you cancel your place to allow others to take up the opportunity).  

Book face to face Thursday 24 April 2025, LEAD Teaching School Hub, Lincoln 9.30-14.30

Book face to face Tuesday 29th April 2025, LEARN Teaching Centre, Long Bennington Business Park 9.30-14.30

There will be a Teams session on 6th May should you not be able to attend one of the April F2F briefing dates.  The content for this will be exactly the same as that covered in the F2F briefings so you don’t need to attend both.

If you attended the Graduated Approach briefings in the 2023-24 academic year or want to have a say on what we have on the agenda next year, please complete our annual survey before 26th July 2024

Please note that the graduated approach briefings, or sections of them, will be recorded for use on the council’s professionals’ website. By booking a place and attending the briefings, it is assumed that you agree to this.  If you do not wish to be recorded, you have the option of watching the recordings later.
