These would be training resources supporting the teacher towards effectively meeting the needs of their students while including them fully in the curriculum. I am interested to know if any of you are aware of any existing training materials of this sort. I would be particularly interested in any resources that are open access or creative commons so that we could decide if we could make appropriate use of them here at Solent. Thanks in advance for any ideas.
