Parent Partnership Service

Is your child finding it difficult to cope at nursery or at school?

The Parent Partnership Service exists to give confidential, impartial help and support to parents and carers who have a child aged 0-19 who need extra help with pre-school or school education. This might be because the child or young person:

• Is disabled
• Has a learning difficulty
• Has a social, emotional or behavioural difficulty
• Finds it more difficult to learn than other children the same age

The Parent Partnership Service can help by...

• Giving information about the education system and special educational needs provision
• Listening to your views, worries and concerns
• Helping you to get things clear in your own mind and to get your voice and opinion heard
• Putting you in touch with other sources of help and information so that you can make informed choices
• Helping you to sort out the paperwork, going to meetings with you and providing support to write letters
• Providing the name of a trained volunteer for ongoing support
