1.1 Explain key aims of education and training in your own specialist area. I work in the independent school, alternative provision sector and my specialist area is behaviour.

This can include Autism (ASD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and those with mild learning difficulties. The key aims of education and training within my area of specialism strongly revolve around both the independent school standards (Department for Education, 2019) and Ofsted’s inspection framework (Ofsted, 2023). The main qualifications which my school delivers are based around the foundation learning tier, of English, Maths and Science, (Soham Village College, 2024). The key aims of education and training within my area of specialism are that my learners achieve a minimum of Level 1 in English and Maths before leaving us, alongside a Level 1 BTEC Science and two additional Level 1 BTEC qualifications. Schools and colleges have a responsibility to deliver English and Maths to learners up to the age of 19, (Department for Education, 2023).

Learning from the strengths (and weaknesses) of the Better Care Fund, a mandatory framework should then require the pooling of health, social care and housing budgets, and mandate NHS and local government commissioners to draw up a long-term plan for spending that funding in a way that builds up community services, makes the Charter of Rights above real, and reduces reliance on inpatient services. NHS England, central Government and local government representatives such as the Local Government Association and Association of Directors of Adult Social Services should support and assure the drawing up of local commissioning plans, and unblock systemic barriers (including Ordinary Residence rules and eligibility for Continuing Health Care). There should be a named lead commissioner in each area, working collaboratively with a provider forum and people with learning disabilities and/or autism and their

). By showing them passion and being enthusiastic I would motivate them to achieve their targets. Wallace (2006), states that if outcomes are not achieved by students the lesson is not achieving the primary purpose. This is why assessing plays a significant role in the learning process. Formative assessment gives feedback about the learners’ progress through the course and a summative assessment is carried out at the end of the course and this is a formal way to check if the learner has met the outcomes of the course (Gravells 2014).

Academic ability is the largest cause of concern and has been picked by 18.2% of all students surveyed, this indicates that almost a fifth of the students who took part in the survey are finding school difficult and feel as though their own ability level is preventing them from being able to accomplish goals both at school and in potential job opportunities (Mission Australia, 2015).
