Early identification and referral for additional needs

This self-assessment helps you reflect on your confidence with early identification and referral for additional needs. It is for early years educators, SENCOs and room leaders. It supports discussion, supervision and planning further learning. It does not confirm competence. It does not replace formal training, observation of practice, employer checks, professional judgement or local policy. If you score below 3 on average, or score 1 or 2 for any statement, review the relevant learning and discuss this in supervision.
