I am a teacher at Sommerville Special School. All of the students I work with have Neuorodevelopmental disorders, some of whom have complex communication needs and/or relatively limited experiences of generating language. My blog this year is based on collaborative practice in a Special needs setting. Enjoy the journey....

Working as a team
Bradbeer, Martin (2016) found in their inquiry that the “capacity to give and receive trust, to sense make and be open, bridges a threshold that helps to move from an “I” space to a “we” space, a critical component of working together”.
During our Sommerville teacher only day, we asked the staff to tell us what collaboration means to them. We used google Jam board to get their feedback.
At Sommerville we work across many different sites, so collaboration across sites and in pathways can look different. One thing we were able to gauge from the feedback is that most staff are keen on collaborating and willing to work as a team. For those who still haven't fully grasped the concept of collaboration, it will be a work in progress.
