SEND Parent Voice Questionnaire

At Cuerden Church School, we believe that working in partnership with parents and carers is one of the most important ways we can support children with SEND to thrive.

Next week, we will be sending out our SEND Parent Voice Questionnaire to all parents and carers of pupils with SEND. The questionnaire will give families the opportunity to share their views on the support their child receives, the adaptations that help them learn, communication between home and school, and the work we do alongside external agencies.

We are also keen to ensure that the support we offer families reflects their interests and needs. As part of the questionnaire, parents and carers will be able to suggest topics for future SEND coffee mornings and workshops.

Potential topics may include ADHD, Autism, Anxiety and Emotional Regulation, Sleep, Sensory Needs, Supporting Learning at Home and Understanding EHCPs, but we would love to hear your ideas too.

Your feedback is invaluable and helps us continue to strengthen our inclusive provision and support for children and families across our school community.

Thank you for working alongside us to ensure every child feels valued, included and able to flourish.

Welcome to SEND at Cuerden Church School

At Cuerden Church School, we believe that every child should feel valued, included and able to flourish. We are committed to providing an ambitious, inclusive education where every child can achieve success academically, socially and emotionally.

We understand that some children may require additional support to overcome barriers to learning and participate fully in school life. Through high-quality teaching, strong family partnerships and specialist support where appropriate, we work together to ensure every child can thrive.

I am worried about my child. What should I do?

If you have concerns about your child's learning, development, behaviour or wellbeing, the first step is to speak with your child's class teacher.

Class teachers know children well and can discuss:

• Your child's strengths
• Areas of difficulty
• Support already in place
• Possible next steps

If concerns remain, a meeting can be arranged with the SENDCo to discuss support and potential assessments in more detail.

We encourage parents to speak to us as early as possible so that support can be put in place quickly.

How does school identify children who may need additional support?

We identify needs through:

• Baseline assessments
• Regular teacher assessment
• Pupil progress meetings
• SEND review meetings
• Discussions with parents and carers
• Information from nurseries and previous schools
• Home visits where appropriate
• Referrals to specialist services

We understand that needs can emerge at different points throughout a child's education and therefore monitor progress throughout every year group.

What kinds of SEND do you support?

We support pupils across all four areas of need identified within the SEND Code of Practice:

Communication and Interaction

Including speech and language difficulties and autism.

Cognition and Learning

Including dyslexia, processing difficulties and specific learning difficulties.

Social, Emotional and Mental Health

Including anxiety, ADHD, emotional regulation and wellbeing needs.

Sensory and Physical Needs

Including hearing impairment, visual impairment, physical disabilities and sensory processing difficulties.

What does SEND support look like in the classroom?

High-quality adaptive teaching is the first level of support for all children.

Examples of adaptations seen across classrooms include:

Visual Support

• Visual timetables
• Now and Next boards
• Visual prompts
• Task checklists

Communication Support

• Vocabulary mats
• Pre-teaching key vocabulary
• Simplified instructions
• Visual cues

Learning Support

• Writing frames
• Chunked instructions
• Scaffolds
• Practical activities
• Alternative methods of recording

Sensory and Regulation Support

• Movement breaks
• Sensory resources
• Quiet workspaces
• Emotional regulation tools

Independence Support

• Structured routines
• Self-help prompts
• Personal targets
• Reduced reliance on adult support

Our aim is always to remove barriers while developing confidence, resilience and independence.

Will my child receive additional support?

Some children may receive additional support through:

• Small group interventions
• Precision teaching
• Speech and language programmes
• Emotional wellbeing support
• Social communication groups
• Targeted intervention programmes
• Individual support plans
• Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) provision where appropriate

Support is reviewed regularly to ensure it is making a positive difference.

How do you know if support is working?

We use a graduated approach:

Assess

Identifying barriers to learning.

Plan

Agreeing support and strategies.

Do

Review

Measuring impact and agreeing next steps.

We monitor progress through:

• Behaviour and wellbeing monitoring
• Pupil voice
• Parent voice

Parents are involved through:

• SEND review meetings
• Parent consultations
• EHCP reviews
• Meetings with the SENDCo
• Telephone conversations
• Email communication
• Regular discussions with school staff

How do you listen to children?

We regularly gather pupil voice through:

• SEND review meetings
• Individual conversations
• SEND questionnaires
• Transition reviews
• Classroom discussions

Children help us understand:

• What helps them learn
• Which adaptations work best
• What they enjoy
• Any worries or concerns

This information is used to improve support and provision.

Which outside agencies support the school?

We work closely with a range of specialist professionals including:

• Educational Psychology
• Speech and Language Therapy
• REACH
• Golden Hill
• School Nursing Service
• Hearing Impairment Service
• Visual Impairment Service
• Primary Mental Health Workers
• ADHD services

The SENDCo can provide guidance on:

• SEND concerns
• Assessment pathways
• EHCP processes
• Available support services
• Transition arrangements

Families are also signposted to relevant community services and support organisations when appropriate.
