This resource has 10 cooking recipes which are fully written with ingredients and instructions. All these recipes are accessible to students at primary school and/or with special educational needs - they contain affordable ingredients with everyday equipment which can be accessed within a classroom environment with adult support. NO HOBS. They are written with symbol communication software and simplified keyword sentences to encourage students to be independent. This is suitable for cooking lessons, fine motor exercises, food studies, healthy eating, life skills and preparation for adulthood.

This resource includes examples of how to provide evidence that you’ve met the teaching standards, and to view the matching teacher standard guidelines view my other free resource. Perfect for generating ideas for PGCE, School Direct, SCITT, or Undergraduate.

This resource contains basic Makaton signs suitable for adult learning (this resource is not designed for children to learn from). Makaton is a language system that uses symbols, signs and speech to enable people to communicate. I would recommend anyone and everyone to learn the basic signs in this brief guide to prevent communication barriers and promote inclusion. Disclaimer: these signs have been extracted from the free resource 'The Makaton Charity ‘All About Me’ and I do not claim these are my own pictures.

In this resource, I provide an example of a planning document for an observation as part of a teaching interview in the UK. This is the planning I used for my special educational needs teacher job in which I was successful in receiving an offer within a secondary school, however the school follows a primary curriculum therefore the planning reflects a primary school approach. I have also broken down my planning to demonstrate the reasoning along with ideas how to adjust this document to your own interview observation for teaching - especially understanding the different teaching and assessment strategies for students with special educational needs. This pack also includes the resources I used in my template observation through a PowerPoint/ActiveInspire. All images I use are my own.

An overview of the UK teaching standards, perfect to reflect on at the front of your folder
