Blog & Podcast

At Inspire EHC, we understand the challenges schools face in supporting every child. In this blog, we explore why SEN support has never been more important and how the right staff can make a real difference for pupils, teachers, and the whole school community.

Discover why speech and language strategies are vital for every learner, not just those with identified SAL needs. This blog explains how inclusive communication practices support understanding, confidence, behaviour, and wellbeing, helping all pupils engage fully with learning and thrive in the classroom.

Children thrive when families, schools, and therapists work together. Collaboration creates consistency, understanding, and support, helping children feel safe, confident, and ready to learn.

Trauma-informed practice in SEND settings is about seeing the child behind the behaviour. By responding with understanding, consistency, and care, schools and families help children feel safe, valued, and ready to learn, supporting them to thrive both emotionally and academically.

Did you know that a brand-new GCSE in British Sign Language (BSL) is on the way? The regulations are designed to ensure that the GCSE is suitable for new learners of BSL, while also being as accessible as possible for students who use BSL as their first or primary language.

Schools have always been about more than just education. They are communities; places of growth, connection and safety for children and young people. In 2025, as we continue to navigate the long-term effects of the pandemic, rising exam pressure and growing social and emotional needs, pastoral care has never been more important.  At Inspire EHC, we are seeing first-hand how schools are leaning into their pastoral systems and how vital it is to have the right support in place.
