Local Offer
What is a local offer?
The local offer provides information on what services children, young people and their families can expect from a range of local agencies, including education, health and social care.
Knowing what is out there gives you more choice and therefore more control over what support is right for your child.
The local offer provides information on a number of things, including:
- Special educational provision;
- Health provision;
- Social care provision;
- Other educational provision;
- Training provision;
- Travel arrangements for children and young people to schools, colleges and early years education;
- Preparing for adulthood, including housing, employment and leisure opportunities.
Help is on hand
Any child may at some point in their life require extra help and support and at East Park Primary School we include all children and make sure they access a curriculum suited to their needs.
Children needing intervention are identified at the earliest possible opportunity and individual programmes are established after consultation with parents, pupils, class teachers, the Special Needs Co-ordinator, and any relevant agencies including the Psychological Service.
Children are supported in their classroom, in small groups and in 1 to 1 programmes such as Fresh Start phonics, Fast track phonics and Words First.
