Making Sense of SEND

Making Sense of SEND training aims to help parent carers understand some of the most important information and the most useful skills to develop when supporting a child with SEND. DiAS staff will explain the basics about special educational needs, SEN support and how the SEND system works and help parents to feel more confident about speaking up for their child and working with professionals.

You may find it most useful if you’re new to SEND or have a child being supported without an EHC plan, but anyone is welcome to join!

The morning is a mix of presentations, discussion, interactive tasks and question and answer slots. Previous attendees have described the session as "Excellent, so empowering!" "Good practical help" and "Friendly with a chance to ask questions". Refreshments are available.

Cullompton Community Centre is 5 minutes drive from the M5 at Junction 28, buses from Honiton, Tiverton and Exeter stop at the main high street near by and there is parking at the venue. There is disabled access, with an entrance ramp, accessible toilet facilities and a lift to the first & second floors. There is also a hearing loop installed throughout the building.

There are limited tickets (30 people only) and we will operate a waiting list.
