Special Educational Needs & Disability (SEND) update

Dear Parents and Carers, 

Due to the current Covid 19 restrictions we are sadly unable to host our termly SEND parent and carer ‘drop in’ sessions. Usually Parents and Carers are invited to come to The Den to speak to Miss Plimmer (our SENDCO) and Mrs Powell (Inclusion Manager) about their child’s needs and progress.

This term we are proposing that following your Parents Evening telephone call with class teachers in the coming weeks, you can request a telephone call from Miss Plimmer and Mrs Powell to talk specifically about SEND needs.

To request a phone call between 3pm-4pm or 4:30pm-5:30pm on Thursday 22nd October, please send an email requesting a time slot to Miss Plimmer’s SEND email address: newdalesendco@taw.org.uk or ring the office and ask them to pass on the message 01952 387720.

Kind regards,

Miss Plimmer
