The informed level is relevant to anyone working with children and young people and enhances universal support for all. It can also be used by those who work with adult learners, parents, carers, families and in community learning contexts. The activities and resources in this level have been designed to support all educators’ knowledge and practice and is not intended to reflect someone’s seniority.

In each of the four themes there are a range of activities and resources, in a variety of formats to select from.

Rights and Equalities

Wellbeing and Care

How to use the informed level of the framework

Depending on your context and setting, there are different ways you could use the framework resources, for example:

1. Facilitated Professional Learning
2. Collaborative Professional Learning
3. Self-Directed Professional Learning

The resources within the framework can also be used with a combination of the above approaches.

For example

• teams may focus on one of the four themes, use development time to access a activities and resources and then discuss at an in-service day
• individuals and teams can use the activities and resources in this level to ensure a consistent understanding of supporting all children and young people

Improvement questions

1. How do you know if the professional learning you can access meaningfully supports improvement in the outcomes of all learners, including those who require additional support at the universal level?
2. How can the informed level of the Inclusion, Wellbeing and Equalities Professional Learning Framework complement the professional learning your establishment or local authority provides?
