SENDIASS sessions for parents and carers

Booking is open for our online session aiming to help families prepare for their child’s transition to primary school. Parents and carers helped coproduce this session which will be supported by a member of Suffolk’s Early Years and Childcare Service. We will explore what kind of information is helpful to find out from school and share with school, ideas to help prepare for the start of term and considerations for children with SEND.

Anyone who registers will have access to a pre-recording of the session to watch on demand and linked resources.

The session is held on a Saturday to make it easier for young people to take part. The presenters will send one-page-profiles so the young people know who to expect to see.
