Good clear site – have a look at numeracy / literacy sections as some nice ideas and activities to download. A range of cross curricular subjects covered.

There is a whole SEN section - click under Other then SEN will appear as a tab

          Sentence Pyramid
          Relaxation ideas for ASD pupils
