Special Needs (Outside Agencies)

There may be occasions when concerns are expressed by Class Teachers, parents or other outside agencies regarding a child's physical, intellectual, social or emotional development. It may be deemed necessary to involve various outside agencies as part of the programme of provision. Such agencies could include:
  • Area Special Needs Support Teacher
  • Outreach Teacher
  • School Doctor
  • Educational Psychologist
  • Speech Therapist
  • Physiotherapist
  • School Nurse
  • Occupational Therapist
  • Behaviour Support Team

If a child is placed on the Special Needs Register, regular review meetings are held involving all parties concerned, to assess and monitor progress and establish new targets. Parents will be consulted on such matters and no arrangements will be made for external assessment without parental consent.
