Specialist Support for Schools: Building Inclusive Systems That Work

CPD - understanding what is behind a behaviour

Specialist Service in Additional Needs
At Family Pathway, we don’t do one-size-fits-all training.
We partner with your school to co-design person-centred, relational, and evidence-informed systems that strengthen universal provision, reduce exclusion, and improve wellbeing.
Our work aligns with the ALN Code for Wales and supports schools to embed practices that are proactive—not reactive.

What We Offer:
  • Person-Centred Planning Development 
Training and coaching to embed PCP practices across your school—from IDP planning to everyday relational pedagogy.
What changes? Staff shift from ‘doing paperwork’ to understanding learners’ actual lived experience—and using it to shape support that works.
​
  • Universal Provision Reboot 
We support staff to create high-quality, inclusive environments that work for neurodivergent and marginalised learners—without needing a diagnosis to access help.
​What changes? Fewer learners falling through the cracks. Fewer referrals, more regulation, better belonging—starting in the classroom.
​
  • Systems Redesign for Belonging 
We audit and co-develop your internal isolation, reset rooms, and inclusion policies to shift from containment to connection.
What changes? Isolation isn’t just renamed—it becomes a space for reconnection, repair, and progression, not punishment.
​
  • Head of Year & Pastoral Support 
We offer coaching and training to empower Heads of Year to lead relationally, intervene early, and become catalysts for whole-school inclusion.
​What changes? Pastoral leads stop firefighting and start driving a proactive, restorative culture across the year group.

How We Build Lasting Impact
Scale what worksWe help you implement practical strategies—academic support, mentoring, trauma-informed counselling, and targeted staff CPD—within a whole-school framework.
Embed sustainabilityQuick wins fade fast. We help you build in booster systems, long-term coaching, and real-time feedback to make positive change stick.
Evaluate what mattersWe look beyond surface data. Our approach tracks both visible outcomes (like exclusions and attendance) and invisible ones (like anxiety, connection, and executive function).
Strengthen your equity lensWe help schools review and redesign their provision with equity at the centre—across race, ALN, gender, and economic background.
 
What Makes Us Different
  • We don’t train for awareness—we train for transformation
  • We integrate neuroscience, trauma theory, and lived experience
  • We work relationally—with staff and learners—because that’s where change starts
