School & Community Teams
Who do the teams work with?
Teams work predominantly with children, young people and families that require early support, where a child or young person's inclusion needs are within level 3 of the Identification of Needs Descriptors in Educational Settings (INDES). Teams will work flexibly with schools and early years providers and can support a number of complicating factors including:
- Child's engagement in their learning.
- Familial factors impacting upon education & SEND (i.e. parenting, attendance etc)
- A trajectory for specialist provision or limited progress within SEN Support.
When considering the allocation of support teams will take into account other factors that may impact upon a child or young person's outcomes, such as risk of exclusion, escalation of need, and lack of confidence in a schools or settings capacity to meet need.
