SEN - How governing body involves other bodies inc. health and social services, LA and voluntary organisations in meeting the needs of SEN students and supporting families
We work with many other professionals and organisations in order to support students with special educational needs. These include the Educational Psychology team, Behaviour Support Team, Communication and Interaction Team, CAMHs, Visual Impairment & Hearing Impairment teams, School Inclusion, Specialist language teachers and Occupational therapists. Referrals to these professionals would most commonly be made by the Learning Support Manager, in consultation with the parents, SENDco and class teachers. We also work closely with our school nurses and the Health Visiting team. Referrals will either be made to a single agency or more commonly to the multi-agency Integrated students’s Services.
