SEND Transformation Programme information events for parents and carers

18th Nov 2022

Please see the letter and poster attached:

Dear Principal
As part of our work to transform our Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) Services, we
are holding online SEND Transformation Programme information events for parents and carers, and
we would be grateful if you could share details of the events with your school community.
The SEND Transformation Programme Reference Group (PRG), made up of parent advocacy groups
and the wider education and health bodies, and community and voluntary organisations, will
facilitate the following engagement sessions:
Online information session 1: Thursday 24th November 2022: 8-9:30: https://bit.ly/3Ez4Z5k
Online information session 2: Thursday 1st December, 2022: 7pm-8:30pm: https://bit.ly/3tDkenz
These upcoming information events provide an opportunity for parents and carers to learn more
about the programme and to meet PRG representatives. We want to make sure all voices are heard,
so that we can be sure we are taking the right steps to deliver the right support at the right time,
for all our children with special educational needs and disabilities.
Attached is a graphic that you may wish to use in the promotion of the events. Further information
on the SEND Transformation Programme is available at: https://bit.ly/3gjw82S
We are also establishing forums for engagement which will run across the lifespan of the SEND
Transformation programme, including forums for school leaders, teachers SENCOs other
practitioners. Further details of engagement opportunities will be provided as the new projects
come on stream in the New Year.
Thank you for your ongoing support with this important work.
Yours sincerely
Una Turbitt
Interim Director
