Special Educational Needs (SEN)

SEN stands for special educational needs, and it refers to specific learning difficulties or other disorders that make learning more difficult for some students than others. Depending on the severity of their disability, children with SEN may simply require extra assistance or a completely different approach to learning.

According to the NHS, approximately 1.5 million people in the United Kingdom have a learning disability, demonstrating how common these are.

SEN refers to a wide range of educational needs. Most of the time, such learning difficulties affect students’ cognition, communication, and/or concentration, as well as their literacy and numeracy skills. SEN also includes mental health issues that can cause increased anxiety or stress while learning. As a result, such students may exhibit a distinct lack of self-confidence and self-esteem within an educational setting, as well as behavioural issues that can have a negative impact on their relationships – both in and out of school.
