The Service offers independent, impartial information and support. We provide: Support to parents/carers who have requested an assessment for a Statement of SEN for their child; Support for parents/carers where others (eg school) have requested an assessment for a Statement of SEN for their child; Support to parents/carers of children who are at School Action or School Action Plus because for their SEN; and Independent Parental Supporters (IPS) who can provide information and support to parents of children with SEN.
