The Briarwood curriculums are completely unique and has been designed and developed to take into account the needs of all pupils with SEND. A curriculum is the basis for any school to provide a meaningful and effective education to the pupils who attend. At Briarwood we believe this should be a broad, balanced and sequential approach which identifies and meets the needs of SEND pupils. We provide positive challenges to foster individual achievements and promote confidence and self-expression. This allows the curriculum to show progress of pupils over time; celebrating the challenging, enriching and developmental progress of all pupils.

Ofsted said "The curriculum is crystal clear. Ambitious, yet realistic, goals are set out in tiny, detailed steps. Consequently, learning activities help to get the absolute best from everyone."

Join Briarwood for a dynamic and inspiring training day designed to support Early Years and Key Stage 1 leaders and teachers working in mainstream settings with children who have Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). This session is especially valuable for practitioners who feel unsure about how to effectively plan and deliver learning for pupils with SEND within the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS).

The day begins by exploring the critical importance of early intervention, highlighting how timely, targeted support can transform outcomes for our youngest learners. Central to the training is the introduction of the Briarwood Early Years Stages (BEYS) — a bespoke, ambitious, and carefully sequenced curriculum designed specifically for children with SEND.

BEYS bridges the gap between statutory EYFS requirements and the unique developmental needs of SEND learners, offering clarity and confidence to teachers who may be uncertain about what to teach or how to adapt their provision.

Throughout the day, participants will gain:

A deep understanding of the BEYS curriculum and how it can be implemented in mainstream settings
Practical strategies to ensure compliance with EYFS standards while meeting the needs of SEND pupils
Tools to create inclusive, meaningful, and impactful provision for learners with a wide range of needs
Insights into high-quality, research-informed practice that supports developmental progress and engagement

Each participant will receive a copy of the BEYS curriculum to use in their own school, along with planning templates and examples of successful implementation. You will also receive an electronic tracking system to measure the smallest steps of progress in line with the curriculum targets.Bonus Support: An optional 1:1 follow-up session (1 hour) with a Briarwood curriculum lead is available to help tailor BEYS to your specific school context and pupil needs.Through expert guidance, real-world examples, and collaborative learning, you’ll leave with the confidence and clarity to embed inclusive practices and deliver a curriculum that enables every child to thrive — even if you’re new to working with SEND.

Join us from 9.00am to 3.30pm at the Briarwood Training and Development Centre, Briar Way for a practical day of training designed to support you in embedding BEYS within your setting

£475 for up to two colleagues, including lunch and an additional one-hour coaching session with a Briarwood senior leader to help you translate the training into effective practice in your school.
