Workshop
• In Kent we know that there will be more people living here over the next 5 years
• We know that there will also be an increase in the number of people with learning disabilities
• We know that will be an increase in the demand for support due to more people and the ageing of the people
Question 1
a) Should we teach more specialist staff members to help support the increase in need?
b) Or should we teach more generally registered staff to support the increased needs?
Question 2
What kind of extra skills and education do you think either (a) or (b) staff would need to support the increase in needs of the learning disability population?
