8 Principles into practice: emotional and behavioural difficulties

Disseminating best practice

17. One of the responsibilities which we have accepted in Chapter 7 is for the identification and dissemination of good practice. EBD special schools face quite exceptional challenges. Some meet these challenges superbly. But OFSTED has found that an unacceptably high proportion of these schools fail to provide an adequate standard of teaching and learning. There is a growing body of inspection and research-based evidence which the DfEE will use to run workshops, with the support of OFSTED, on effective practice in EBD special schools. We shall build on these workshops to develop a programme offering consultancy support to EBD special schools. We shall invite some of the heads of EBD schools which have been found by OFSTED to be making outstanding provision for their pupils to take part in such a programme. Next year HMI will publish a report highlighting effective practice in EBD schools.
