T Level industry placements – hosting neurodiverse students and students with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND)

  • Online
  • Free


Hosting neurodiverse students and students with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) brings many benefits in terms of an inclusive approach to talent and greater diversity in the organisation. There are some extra responsibilities for employers, but these are shared with the educational provider and should not be seen as a barrier to offering placements.

This one-hour webinar demonstrates why employers benefit from hosting SEND and neurodiverse students. It also shows what these extra responsibilities are and how employers can meet them in collaboration with schools and colleges.

The webinar will take you through:

  • An understanding of SEND, education and health care (EHC) plans and neurodiversity
  • A SEND roadmap
  • Reasonable adjustments
  • Employer and provider responsibilities, including sharing placement hours
  • Helping SEND students to learn at work

There is no charge for this webinar. 

Who is the webinar for? 

This webinar is for anyone who would like to know more about why to host SEND and neurodiverse students on T Level industry placements, what’s involved, and how providers can help. The content has been designed for those who are organising or coordinating placements, and those involved in managing or mentoring students during their placement.
