PODs SEND coffee afternoon Monday 7th October

This term we are hosting a SEND coffee afternoon on Monday 7th October at 1:45pm with PODs as part of a joint programme on neurodiversity with the NHS. We look forward to see you there.

PARENTS OPENING DOORS (PODS) coffee afternoon 7th October

PODS (Parents Opening Doors) is a parent carer/peer led charity that supports parent carers who have children/young people (0-25 years old) with a disability and/or additional need. All PODS staff and volunteers have the ‘lived experience’ which helps to support the parent carers. PODS is attending the Coffee Afternoon at  School on 7th October 2024 at 1.45pm. We are integral to the delivery of the PINS project in schools with aims to:

  • give opportunities to ensure that parent carers have their voices heard by the school,
  • bringing families together to share their experiences
  • work in co-production.

Our first session will introduce PODS Parent Carer Forum and discuss how we will run the sessions over this academic year and the focus of these sessions.

Final call for PINS SEND parents questionnaire

Dear Parent Carer
 
We are pleased to advise you that your child’s school is participating in the Partnership for Inclusion of Neurodiversity in Schools (PINS) programme, which aims to improve support for children with additional needs.
 
Please complete our survey here: https://forms.office.com/e/MpqRrBVbGs
 
The Parent Carer Survey to support the Partnership for Inclusion of Neurodiversity in Schools (PINS) project.
This survey is part of the Partnership for Inclusion of Neurodiversity in Schools (PINS) funded by NHS England in partnership with the Department of Education, Department for Health and Social Care and the National Network of Parent Carer Forums (NNPCF).  The survey is open until 19th June 2024.

The purpose of the project is to improve the experience of mainstream school for children who may have an additional educational need. The information from the survey will be used to understand the current strengths and potential areas of improvement in a school.

The survey is for all parents and carers of children attending schools participating in the project. If you have more than one child attend the school, then you may complete the survey for the number of children you have attending the school.
 
We will be hosting Parent Carer ‘Coffee Mornings’ in the school and we will be starting these in the new School Term.
 
Best Regards
