NICK EVANS
Headteacher, Evergreen School
strand: SPECIAL EDUCATION - INCLUSION, NEURODIVERGENCE AND EMPLOYABILITY
Nick is Headteacher at Evergreen School in Warwick. Evergreen School is an all-age school for children and young people with special education needs and disabilities (SEND).
He is hugely passionate about delivering innovative learning experiences and better outcomes for children and young people with learning difficulties. Despite what seems to be a national crisis with regards to SEND provision, Nick believes we must all look towards a brighter future for ALL young people and specifically those who might have so many barriers to overcome each day.
At last year's conference, Nick talked about how we can reshape our mindsets with regards to supporting young people with SEND. This year, he will focus on his vision, what the world should like for our amazing young people.
Throughout the day, you will hear from fantastic speakers on specific areas such as Autism, Employment for young people with SEND, the future of inclusion in the mainstream environment, and Nick will also share examples of some fantastic partnership work that has been going on between Evergreen and 1 Mill Street in Leamington.
