Les Sage
I started teaching in 1968 and retired in 2008. I spent 4 years teaching in mainstream schools and the next 36 in a wide range of special provision. In 1992 I became the head of an EBD school [ now SEMH ] where I spent the next 16 years. The school was judged Outstanding by Ofsted in 2006.
I have been a member of SEBDA for over 20 years. Currently I am a Trustee, Honorary General Secretary and a National Council member. I have helped to organise a number of National Conferences and represented SEBDA as a member of the STA Inclusion Panel. I was a tutor when the SEBDA Master’s Level courses were delivered in partnership with Leicester University and I am now part of the SEBDA / Brookes Course team.
