Inclusive Mainstream Practice in Leeds is understood through a graduated approach that combines universal and targeted provision.
Section 1: Universal Provision (Whole School Approaches to Inclusion)
In Leeds, we have co-produced a set of expectations that contribute to effective outcomes for all, particularly learners with SEND.
Section 2: Targeted Provision
Tailored Approaches and strategies that settings could ordinarily take to meet an individual child or young person’s needs. This section is organised to correspond with the four broad areas of need identified in the 2015 SEND Code of Practice.
Universal and Targeted Provision: A Continuum of Support
Universal provision strengthens inclusive practice across the whole school, ensuring that all pupils benefit from high-quality teaching and supportive environments. Targeted provision complements this by guiding the planning and review of support for individual learners with SEND.
Together, these approaches form a cohesive and responsive framework for embedding inclusive principles at both systemic and personalised levels. They create a continuum of support ensuring that every child or young person receives the right help, in the right way, at the right time.
