    Hi David,
    Thank you for your feedback in page 9 of the education inspection framework under the Quality of education, it says see below, students with SEND and the provider has the same academic, technical or vocational ambitions for all learners. My headteacher took this words literally and is now reluctant to allow me to do a different curriculum for those P levels students.
    See paragraph :
    26. Inspectors will make a judgement on the quality of education by evaluating the
    extent to which:
    Intent
     leaders take on or construct a curriculum that is ambitious and designed to
    give all learners, particularly the most disadvantaged and those with special
    educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) or high needs, the knowledge
    and cultural capital they need to succeed in life
     the provider’s curriculum is coherently planned and sequenced towards
    cumulatively sufficient knowledge and skills for future learning and
    employment
     the provider has the same academic, technical or vocational ambitions for
    almost all learners. Where this is not practical – for example, for some
    learners with high levels of SEND – its curriculum is designed to be
    ambitious and to meet their needs
     learners study the full curriculum. Providers ensure this by teaching a full
    range of subjects for as long as possible, ‘specialising’ only when necessary
