Special Educational Needs expert group
The Special Educational Needs (SEN) expert group was founded immediately after the Warnock report in 1978 so that ISC’s member Associations could be kept well informed of current developments regarding SEN. The group consists of Heads and Special Educational Needs Co-ordinators (SENCos) from schools ranging from those registered as specialist to academically selective and high achieving.
The remit of the group is to:
- Assist ISC with responding to government initiatives and be a source of information for ISC
- Keep Heads and colleagues properly informed as to their duties and responsibilities
- Provide a networking facility to help provide training and support for SENCos’ working within member schools

Community Action Working Party
The Working Party has been in existence for over 40 years and consists of teachers representing the Associations’ schools with responsibility for developing programmes of Community Action, partnerships and volunteering in independent schools. It aims to foster links between schools within and outside the independent sector, in the UK and overseas, and to support schools which are beginning or seeking to expand their programmes. It holds a national conference every two years and regional meetings at intervals. The Working Party regularly advises on Government and DfE consultations and policymaking.
