The Northamptonshire Schools' Inclusion Conference 2026 is a vital collaborative initiative between the University of Northampton, North Northamptonshire Council, and West Northamptonshire Council. This prestigious event is dedicated to the advancement of Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) support within the UK school system, focusing specifically on the theme of "Mental Health & Wellbeing" as a catalyst for inclusion. The conference is headlined by Professor Jonathan Glazzard, a world-renowned expert in social justice and education. His keynote address, titled "Ways Forward to a Flourishing SEND System," will challenge existing paradigms and offer practical, research-led strategies for creating educational environments where every child can thrive. This sets the stage for a day of deep dive learning and professional development. Participants will be able to customize their experience by choosing from ten specialist workshops. These sessions are led by a mix of University of Northampton researchers and local SEND specialists, covering topics such as neurodiversity in the classroom, trauma-informed teaching practices, and the integration of digital tools to support diverse learning needs. The event is not just theoretical; it is designed to provide practitioners with "take-home" strategies that can be implemented immediately in their respective schools. The day concludes with a high-level Panel Q&A featuring representatives from Ofsted (HMI), local authority leaders, and experienced Headteachers. This provides a rare platform for delegates to voice concerns and ask direct questions about the future of SEND policy and funding in Northamptonshire.
