What can I do if I have concerns about my child’s progress at school?

These may be around, Reading, writing, numbers, social and emotional development, behaviour, communicating, physical or sensory.

• The first person to speak to about your concerns is your child’s class teacher.
• If you still have on going concerns you may wish to speak to the Special Educational Needs and Disability Coordinator (SENDCO).
• If any special educational needs are identified your SENDCO will plan how to help your child with the involvement of both yourself and the class teacher. Your child’s help and progress may be recorded through an Individual Support Plan (ISP) or another way of recording their progress.

You may also find it helpful to contact SEND and You, your local Parent Partnership Service for Parents and Carers of children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities, who can offer information advice and support to parents and carers of children and young people with special educational needs (SEN).
