Special Educational Needs Workshops

News May 13, 2014

Are you a parent carer living in Nottinghamshire with a child or young person aged between 0 – 25 with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)? If so, we’ve organised a series of workshops across the County to inform you of changes to the way education, health and social care will be delivered in the future.

The Nottinghamshire Participation Hub, in partnership with APTCOO and Nottinghamshire County Council, have organised a series of workshops aimed specifically at parents and carers of children and/or young people aged between 0 – 25 with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).

The workshops are being delivered across the County to ensure parents and carers can access information about the changes and ask questions regarding the way education, health and social care will be delivered in the future. It is also an opportunity to influence the way in which future services are designed to ensure they meet the needs of children and young people across Nottinghamshire.

The sessions will cover the following topics:
– What the local authority and health will be offering in the future as part of the joint Education, Health and Care Plan Pathway
– What’s working well, what needs improving and what are the top priorities with regards to education, health and social care
– And how parents can get involved with the Nottinghamshire Participation Hub to have a stronger voice to influence service design and delivery
