constable   10 #1 Posted July 9, 2018 Hi,  I was just wondering if anyone else was having any issues with Silverdale School and their SEN (Special Educational Needs) Provisions? Or is it just me?  Thanks in advance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

jon&emma   13 #3 Posted July 9, 2018 I’m getting the impression that most secondary schools are having issues with sen departments at the moment. As a parent of a child who is under sen,personally know how we’ve been let down with this department. We’ve also known several parents in different secondary schools who’s children are under sen are also experiencing issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

constable   10 #5 Posted July 10, 2018 All Secondary schools must have Senco by law. Someone in the school must be responsible.  Well we have received 2 letters stating that there will be a period without a SENCO (until September) and i quote..."we ask for your understanding when contacting us about SEN provision until the new SENCO is in place and while we will endeavour to answer any queries you may have, we will be unable to give specific detail regarding the provision for next year" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
S6 D.I.Y Â Â 10 #6 Posted July 10, 2018 Don't get me started on schools and Sen departments .. Has any body had issues with bents green school . Suppose to be a specialist school for autism . But they not got a clue how to deal with autistic children . There answer is to make the children deal like aliens and suspend children over 8 times for same reason instead of dealing with the issues.. I could go on for ever . Â It's hard enough for parents/children with special needs without having to fight with the schools that is suppose to be there to help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
