What do the Sensory Inclusion Service offer?

We support children and young people and their families, from the moment of diagnosis until they leave further education. We support:

• At home (particularly in the early years)
• In early years settings
• In educational settings
• In further education (sixth forms and colleges)

Our work includes:

• Assessment and identification of needs (including supporting education, health and care needs assessments and annual reviews)
• Advice, support and training to ensure educational settings know how to meet the needs of children and young people with hearing and/or visual impairments
• Working 1:1 with children and young people, which may include some direct teaching where appropriate
• Advising educational settings about planning, modifications of materials and support strategies (depending on level of need)
