Expanding Access to SEND Professional Development: Why Flexible CPD Matters More Than Ever

SEND provision continues to evolve in both complexity and expectation. Schools are under increasing pressure to ensure staff feel confident, equipped and informed — while balancing workload and budget constraints. 

High-quality professional development is therefore not optional. It is essential to delivering inclusive, evidence-led education. 

Bringing Specialist Expertise to EuHu 

Creative Education has partnered with Findel to bring SEND-focused online CPD courses to the EuHu platform. 

Established in 2003, Creative Education empowers individuals working with, or caring for, children by offering evidence-based, practical and engaging online continuing professional development courses. 

“We’re delighted to have the opportunity to share our online learning courses for schools with EuHu’s audience of talented and committed school staff. With the many challenges schools are currently facing, developing the skills of staff and sharing new ideas is an essential part of providing an outstanding learning experience for young people.” — Tom Hesmondhalgh, Managing Director, Creative Education 

Practical Value That Extends Beyond Compliance 

Professional development is not about ticking boxes. It is about building long-term capacity and confidence across whole staff teams. 

By hosting Creative Education’s content on EuHu, educators gain streamlined access to specialist SEND training designed for real classroom impact. 

“Creative Education is an excellent business doing great work to ensure the continued development of educators, so this partnership is a perfect fit for our EuHu platform.” — Chris Mahady, CEO, Findel 

Why This Matters Now 

As inclusion becomes central to school improvement, teachers require practical, accessible expertise that fits into busy schedules. 

Partnerships like this demonstrate how education suppliers can contribute to staff development, not just classroom supply. 

Supporting Education for Generations 

Findel’s origins as an educational resources supplier can be traced back to 1817. 

By strengthening access to trusted professional development partners, Findel continues to evolve alongside the needs of modern educators.
