SEND Workforce Development
This webpage now lists the wide range of SEND training available to Sheffield settings from a number of providers. This is part of the Workforce Development area of the whole city SEND and Inclusion Strategy. This new approach is a work in progress and we are hoping to make it easier to locate specific training from a number of providers by listing it all on this webpage.
The training has been separated by the areas of healthy child development and to reflect the broad areas of need by the SEND Code of Practice (Communication and Interaction / Cognition and Learning / Social, Emotional and Mental Health / Sensory and/or Physical), plus one category for systems and processes. Please use the buttons below to navigate to the area of training that you are looking for.
Where no dates or locations are listed on the website, this is because there are multiple dates available and these are listed on the Eventbrite booking page. Costs to settings have been indicated as applicable.
For any queries or feedback about this new approach, please contact enquiries@learnsheffield.co.uk.

About the training
The training supports settings to strengthen their universal inclusion offer by helping staff understand the relationship between emotional wellbeing, neurodevelopment, and behaviour. By embedding whole-school approaches that promote safety, belonging, and relational practice, the training contributes directly to inclusive cultures where pupils’ needs are recognised early and responded to consistently.
The training recognises the diverse experience and expertise across educational settings and is designed to work flexibly with different cohorts. It supports each setting’s specific needs by bringing together:
- Knowledge of children and young people’s mental health
- Neurodevelopment and trauma-informed relational practice
- The shared expertise of educational staff
Participants gain practical strategies and resources to strengthen whole-school implementation and build a coherent, sustainable approach to emotional wellbeing.
Healthy Minds Senior Mental Health Lead training incorporates key elements from the DfE-recommended curriculum and provides a deeper understanding of the Healthy Minds framework for whole-school approaches to emotional wellbeing, and the Mental Health Support Team offer.
Audience: To embed the training it is helpful for two members of staff from the same setting to attend.
The training includes protected planning time and is suited to staff who can influence school improvement.
