This information will be used to ensure that we meet any additional needs your child may have. Once your child is in school we will monitor their progress and development. If we have concerns we may ask other professionals to give advice and support.
If you think your child may be having difficulties with their learning talk to your child’s class-teacher. Your concerns will always be taken seriously, as your views are very important to us.

How will the curriculum be matched to my child’s needs?
