Support available for SEN Early Years
Find out about the support available for your child.
The support provided is based on the specific needs of a child and may include:
Advice, Resources and Training
We can provide training and advice to parents/carers and early education staff. We also have dedicated resources covering a range of topics. In some cases, we will provide advice and signposting to other relevant professionals, for example, Sure Start, Allied Health Professionals (HSCT) and RISE NI.
Pupil Support
Children who have one or more identified SEND, may be provided with bespoke support, where appropriate.
To provide the most appropriate level of support, we will work together with you, early educational/pre-school setting staff and other professionals.
Support can also be provided to your child when they are transitioning into primary education, including practical advice and guidance.
Parent Information
Parents/carers of a child with SEND who has been referred to the SEN Early Years Inclusion Service (SENEYIS), can contact their local SENEYIS office for advice.
