About Simon Ripley
I am Programme Leader for MA SEND (DL), Postgraduate Certificate National Award for Special Educational Needs Coordination, and Postgraduate Certificate Special Educational Needs and Disabilities: Leading Provision and Practice.
I teach both the undergraduate and postgraduate ITT.
I am currently studying for a Professional Doctorate linked to Teacher-Student Interactions where children and young people have SEND. I also have a variety of research interests linked to contextualising practice, adaptive pedagogy, and inclusive ethos.
