SEN Support Toolkit

11. Next Steps





We endeavour to meet the needs of the CYP through SEN support in addition to universal high-quality teaching, however you can also:

  1. Talk through a case with an experienced SEN leader employed by the local authority via our SENCO Helpline.  Raise an enquiry with them by completing this form (HERE), and they will aim to respond within 72 hours. 
  2. Consider an application for an Education, Health and Care needs assessment.  Further information on this pathway for parents can be found here - Pathway for special educational needs support | Children and Families | Hampshire County Council (hants.gov.uk)  


This toolkit focuses on information and guidance that can be quickly accessed and read.  There also exists a wealth of high quality information in the form of books and podcasts.  A few are highlighted below and recommended by our local authority professionals.
