needs of the learners at LSEN schools. Various activities, interventions and projects were identified for
the 2012/2013 financial year, one of which are training programmes for educators and relevant staff
(therapists) working at LSEN schools.
To achieve the goals of the Inclusion Strategy which speaks to institutional and management
development for inclusion education, the TD branch intends to roll out training for educators which will
focus on assessor and moderator skills.
