We understand that being a parent of a child with SEND raises its own questions and difficulties, and we work closely with the Local Authority to support parents wherever possible. It may be that you’re looking for information on how to seek a diagnosis, or what it means. You may be looking for local support groups or advice. Here are some useful links to help support you and your child:
