At a series of one‐day seminars for newly qualified teachers, Denise Dew‐Hughes and Howard Brayton collected information regarding the element of special educational needs the participants had experienced during their initial training. Much of what they unearthed was predictable but there were one or two surprises. The authors conclude that there should be a continuum of training that supports individuals well into their professional career.
