EVENT: Involving Parents & Carers in SEN Provision

Friday 18th November 10am - 2.00pm at Corn Exchange, Market Place, DEVIZES SN10 2HS

Are you a Parent or do you care for a child or young person who has a Statement of SEN or is on School Action or School Action Plus?

Navigating the ‘SEN system’ can be very daunting for parents and carers. In May this year, parents and carers told us they wanted:

 The opportunity to have direct access to those involved in Special Educational Needs (SEN)
 To have a better understanding of who does what and who is responsible for provision of services
 To express their views and feedback their experiences

This FREE event aims to provide information and guidance on roles and responsibilities within SEN at all stages of the Code of Practice. Professionals on hand will include Headteachers, a SENCO, an SEN Governor, key Local Authority Officers and other representatives.

We also have 2 fantastic speakers lined up; Cathy Hunte, Development Officer for South and South West England from Contact A Family and Anna Walker, the Regional Representative of the National Network of Parent Carer Forums who will be talking to us about an SEN and Disability Information Project and the national perspective of working in partnership with parents and carers.
