SEND – What does good SEND look like?

17th June 2022J Donkin

Dear Parents and Carers,

Our Local Authority SEND Team would like your help to shape the future of SEND provision in South Tyneside.  They are inviting you to attend a number of interactive sessions so that you can share your experiences and expertise. Please see the information below and sign up via the link if you would like to participate in shaping the future for our SEND children, young people and adults.

Please see below.

Attend one of these interactive sessions to share your knowledge and expertise. The sessions will review case studies to help us understand how the journey through SEND systems feels for families and how we can make these better.

We will use your feedback and expert knowledge to shape our improvement and delivery plans for SEND services in South Tyneside.

What the session will look like?

  • Table top discussions
  • Review anonymous examples of a family’s journey
  • Map what will make their journey a positive experience
  • Share with wider audience
  • Determine next steps

There are 4 opportunities to get involved at different locations across the borough.

Holi Celebration

17th June 2022N Sikka

This week the children had a fantastic opportunity to take part in R.E workshops based around the Indian festival of colour, ‘Holi’.  Kalpesh from K’z Dance Entertainment Ltd taught all the children some traditional Indian dances and discussed with them the  meaning of the Holi festival.  At the end of the day the whole school came together and performed the dances taught earlier in the day, the children and staff had some wonderful moves!  At the end of the performance everyone took part in throwing colourful dyes at one another to celebrate Holi, just like it is carried out in India.
