New SEND Services
Please see below the new services added to our SEND directory
Intensive pupil support - SEND
These sessions are designed for children with a range of needs who are struggling to engage in the school environment, experience overwhelm or those who require targeted support and intervention for a specific reason as determined by the school. The sessions are designed to focus on exploring the child's strengths, their sense of self and their awareness of their barriers to accessing education or specific barriers they experience. The sessions allow a more in-depth focus on how the child's SEND need may impact their presentation. The programme is personalised to each child and their individual barriers and aims to explore the provision and strategies required to help support them in overcoming barriers.

SEND Telephone consultation
Telephone consultations provide impartial advice to support the setting in thinking through cases, provision, and practice. Settings may be faced with queries related to individual cases, working with external partners, referral processes, or planning the next steps in provision for children. Our highly experienced and knowledgeable team will be on hand to provide consultation on a range of aspects of SEND.

SEND Expert for Independent Review Panel
Following a permanent exclusion, parents and carers can request an Independent Review Panel within 15 days of the Governing Body's decision to uphold the permanent exclusion. In some cases, the parent or carer can request a SEND expert to attend the Independent Review Panel. The role of the SEND expert is to:
- Provide impartial advice on whether the child's SEND needs may be relevant to the permanent exclusion
- Advise on whether the settings policies relating to SEND and the application of such policies were lawful, reasonable and procedurally fair in relation to the permanently excluded child
- Advise on whether the setting acted legally, reasonably and procedurally fair in relation to considering or identifying a child's SEND need in the case of the pupil not being recognised as having SEND by the setting
The SEND expert is impartial and therefore does not make judgements about the child's SEND need, or criticise the school's policies or actions.
