Yes, and it is a moderate move. A special educational needs teacher already covers 71% of what a special educational needs itinerant teacher is expected to do: 24 skills carry over, 16 of which the special educational needs itinerant teacher role treats as required.

4 required skills are missing, plus 11 optional ones. They fall into 5 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, led by communication, collaboration and creativity. The single most important is advise on strategies for special needs students.

Its learning distance is 34 out of 100, which is the moderate band. That accounts for both how much is missing and how specialised those skills are.
