This morning Miss Donkin and I attended the launch of South Tyneside’s ordinarily available provsion. A guide which defines the expected high quality provision to be available within all settings across the local area, to enusre our young people with SEND are able to attend inclusive provisions which support them to learn, grow and achieve.
This guide has been produced in partnership with parents / carers, Special Educational Network Co-ordinators (SENCOs), and other education, health, and care partners and we hope will be a really useful tool.
The Foundation of Light will be running family learning sessions at Hebburn Family Hub. The 8-week course allows adults to spend time thinking about their own and their child’s mental well-being. Topics covered include, communicating and managing emotions, self-esteem, resilience, anger and stress and is suitable for parents with children aged 7-11 years old.
As well as the 8 parent sessions a further session will run in which children can also attend and join in some fun activities.

Dear Parent / Carer
The Department for Education (DfE) has provided grant funding to South Tyneside Council, to
