Parents who have a concern regarding the provision for their child’s SEND should contact their child’s SENDCo in the first instance. Should you remain dissatisfied your specific concerns should be addressed to the Headteacher. If you are still unhappy, the Governing Body Member for SEND should be contacted and a meeting arranged.
