Community of Practice. In diagram 1, this existing WSS community (grey colour in inner circle) will contribute to expanding the numbers of schools actively involved in putting SEND practice at the heart of their activities through the work of SEND Leaders (one in each of the eight RSC regions- dotted circle in eight segments). Within each region (dotted circle and segment on diagram) the SEND leader will bring together existing local networks to generate a new integrated network extending and sustaining it where needed to embrace a larger number of schools and school groups. This COP will build on and expand our already positive links with: • the opportunity areas (where we have SEND Advocates, SEND Reviewers and a number of schools both through existing WSS and reach of our school networks) • each RSC office (each RSC is aware of and supports the work of WSS and Sir David Carter inputted into our most recent conference) • Teaching Schools Council who are both aware of and support the work of WSS Through Samuel Ward Academy Trust we are also building into the Research Schools Network and building on our existing partnership with Education Endowment Foundation programme but we will be reaching out beyond this group. The full Consortium list can be found in section 5.

Community of Practice. “an aggregate of people who come together around mutual engagement in an endeavor [an activity]. Ways of doing things, ways of talking, beliefs, values, power relations – in short practices emerge in the course of this mutual endeavor,” (Xxxxxx & XxXxxxxxx-Xxxxx, 1992, p. 464). Cultural norms: “Knowledge, shared by people in a culture, which gives rise to patterns of behavior,” (Xxxxxxxx, 2003, pp. 518). Discourse: Traditionally defined in formal linguistics as “the linguistic level in which sentences are combined into larger units,” (Xxxxxxxx, 2003, p. 44). To be held in tandem with this form-focused definition, is a definition that focuses upon function. “Discourse, in this view, is language in context: that is language as put to use in social situations, […] contextually specific ways of using language,” (Xxxxxxxx, 2003, p. 44-45). Discourse can be understood as a grouping of communicative acts and speech events, as a grouping of utterances, which may be recursively embedded (Kramsch, 2002).
