Special Educational Needs and Disabilities Local Offer

Support for children and young people with SEN and disabilities

Scallywags Childcare Centre welcome and support children with Special Educational needs. Children are offered settling sessions prior to starting with us. During this time staff and parents can talk about the needs of the child and how best we can support him/her. At Scallywags we have a named SENDCO who oversees the support given to all SEND children. Their role is to support and differentiate the activities and experiences the child is receiving, ensuring the correct support is being offered to the child. The SENDCO will create an individual plan for the child with the input from all involved – parents, key worker, and other professionals. Scallywags pride themselves on robust parent partnerships. All our staff are friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. If a parent has a concern about their child, they are welcome to discuss this with either the child’s key person, or the Senior Management Team. Staff will be able to offer support, guidance, and new ideas on strategies parents may find useful. Scallywags have experience with outside agencies, often working with Health Visitors, Speech and Language therapists and Portage. Historically, Scallywags have also worked alongside Occupational therapists, Paediatricians and Educational Psychologists. We have experience in applying for and contributing to (if necessary) Speech and Language support, Portage, Education Health Care Plans (EHCP), Disability Access funding (DAF), Inclusion Fund and Additional SEND funding. Scallywags have strong links with local schools and offer enhanced transitions for our children with SEND, ensuring that they get the best possible start in their next adventure.
