SEND at Beech Hyde Primary School by

shorej6 — 2026-04-12 07:49:10 UTC

Half-termly SEN coffee mornings are organised by DSPL7 and VISTA. These are for parents who would like advice and support for any issues they may be experiencing at home with a child with SEND. VISTA school family workers and DSPL7 staff are available to chat, and to signpost to other agencies as needed. The coffee morning also provides opportunities to meet other parents who may be experiencing similar things.

In addition, bookable 30-minute appointments can be made with a SEND professional. These provide a chance for parents to gain specific advice and strategies for different areas of need.
