Warren Teaching School Alliance has been successful in gaining a grant to develop some research work with The National College. The research focuses on determining what strategies are most effective in improving the academic progress of pupils with special needs and disabilities. WTSA has already completed a small piece of research on this topic and is looking forward to developing it further and in more depth with The National College. Mrs Dennehy, SENDco at Warren Road Primary School, is at the forefront of this work.
