Mary Hrekow – this is the speaker, who must be heard! Her presentations are interactive and she gives excellent understanding about how outcomes should be set up and worded. She also speaks about person centred approaches, and how a school can use person centred approach strategy towards children. This is really beneficial for parents as well as SENCOs, teachers and other professionals.
