Hi all
Can anyone tell me where I can find out if the SEN Code of Practice applies to non accredited courses held at day centres? A centre near me runs open courses on a slightly informal adhoc style with "tutors" running activities. Should these be led in similar ways to courses run in schools and colleges, i.e. with learning outcomes and objectives and individual learning plans etc? Or can they just run informally with no particular structure. They are specifically advertised and run for individuals over 19 with learning disabilities.
I'd be grateful for any information or pointers, as there are several people struggling with the sessions and it would be good to direct organisers to anything they should be complying with.
thanks
