Documents Library

Feedback on sharing relevant SEND documents in a documents library has been positive. We will continue to add relevant documents in this way.

Our aim in doing this is to make it easier for parents/carers, SENCos, professionals and others working in SEND to find the information they need quickly.

Documents related to individual services will remain attached to their service entry in the directory section of the site and should be searched for by team e.g. Home Tuition for children with medical needs.

Most documents will open in a separate window and can then be downloaded.

Some other documents are designed as templates for you to work on so are not saved as PDFs. These documents will download automatically when you click on the link and can then be opened and worked on.
