Engaging your school community

As a charity we are committed to supporting our members through every stage of life.  Our Child to Adult Support Pathway details the range of support available at every stage!  This webpage summarises all the resources we have available to you as a parent for when your child transitions into different phases of their educational journey; whether that’s from one year to the next or whether they are making the leap from nursery to Primary School or from Primary to Secondary School.
