The NPQ for Special Educational Needs Coordinator course is a brand new qualification for Autumn 2024. Replacing the NASENCO course, the NPQ for SENCO is now the statutory required training for anyone who is working as a school SENCO and must be completed within 3 years of beginning a SENCO role. This course is accredited by NPQ and provided in partnership with CofE Education Office.
Who is this course for?
An Honours degree in a relevant subject area from a UK university or an overseas university agreed by NARIC as equivalent and subject to IELTS and EU requirements. Consideration will be given to students with lower level qualifications who have a relevant range of professional experience. Professional experience that equates to degree level will be considered by the Course Co-ordinator. If some non-graduates are to be considered pre entry tasks will be considered and used at the co-ordinator’s discretion.
