We use this area to keep important documents and links that parents and carers may find useful.
We work closely with parents, carers, and other stakeholders to ensure that students’ targets and outcomes are met.
Before all students start college, we ensure they have time to transition from school or other providers and complete a statement of need and baseline assessment.
Parent/carer contact is crucial, and we ensure through various methods that parents are informed of progress through telephone calls, half termly reports and regular information.
We also work closely with local authorities to ensure that Education Health Care Plan (EHCP) procedures are followed, and all appropriate parties are invited to EHCP annual reviews for input and contribution.

It’s important that you talk to your child about staying safe online. You may want to explore the parents online tool ’NetAware’, developed by the NSPCC and O2, to agree with your children what apps and social networks they can use.
