Meet the Needs of Children with SEND in the Early Years

Access specialist support to ensure that all children progress, succeed and achieve

The percentage of children with SEND in the Early Years, particularly with a high-level of need, is a growing picture for schools across the country. With Specialist Provision places in short supply, funding limited and shrinking school budgets you will want to explore the most effective ways to meet the needs of all the children in your Early Years.

Whether you have several children with SEND within the main classes, have developed a more bespoke provision space within school, or you work in a Specialist Provision setting, we’re here to support you through your Early Years SEND priorities.

Arrange an initial free consultation call with Nikki Walters, Head of School Services, to discuss your needs.
