Preparing for and starting school
The support provided at school may not be the same as your child was receiving at pre-school. However, it should still be appropriate to support your child’s needs, and discussion may be needed before your child starts attending.
Whether or not your child has been attending an early years setting, it will be important to give all the relevant information about your child’s physical and special educational needs to their new school before they start. This may be in the form of reports and other paperwork and will help the school to plan and ensure the support is in place. You may be offered or want to request a transition meeting to discuss this with them.
Most children with SEN have needs that can be met through quality first teaching and reasonable adjustments using the resources that are already or ordinarily available in their mainstream school
