• SEN (special educational needs) department or SENCO (coordinating officer)
• Specialist EAL (English as an additional language) tutors
• Student services
• Peer support / mentor programmes At times, a training organisation may need to seek support or even be required to work with external agencies or personnel. These could include:
• Local authorities or councils
• Charities or support groups
• Specialist education experts or educational psychiatrists
• Safeguarding or social care departments To complete this task you will need to research and explore the available referral opportunities and identify specific external points of referral that are either available nationally, or within your local area.

To pass you will need to explore a range of both internal and external points of referral available within a typical learning environment and explain what services they could provide to assist your role as an educational practitioner.

Please note, this qualification is specifically related to post 18 education (adults) and therefore should be in relation to issues and situations that relate to adults. You could even include detail as to where Prevent referrals and anti-radicalisation concerns will fit into every practitioners’ responsibility.
