Free Special Educational Needs (SEN) support workshops
These sessions are designed to provide valuable insights, practical strategies and a supportive community for those caring for children with SEN. The sessions will assist parents and carers in understanding your child’s SEN and applying effective support strategies to support your child’s learning, wellbeing and communication.
The workshops will be run in collaboration with colleagues from a range of local specialist services including the SEND Advisory Team, Educational Psychology Team, Child Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS), ASD Outreach, Speech and Language Therapy and Occupational Therapy.
