Working with External Agencies SEND
Working with External Agencies
At Reynolds Academy, we recognise that some children may benefit from support and advice from specialist professionals in addition to the provision available within school. We work closely with a range of external agencies to ensure that pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities receive the most appropriate support to help them achieve their full potential.
External agencies can provide specialist assessments, advice, training, and recommendations that help us better understand a child's individual needs and plan effective support. Referrals to external services are made in consultation with parents and carers and are considered when additional expertise may be beneficial.
Depending on a child's needs, we may work with professionals such as:
- Educational Psychologists
- Speech and Language Therapists
- Occupational Therapists
- Physiotherapists
- Compass Go
- School Nursing Services
- Paediatricians and other Health Professionals
- Early Help Services
- Social Care Professionals
Recommendations from external agencies are carefully considered and incorporated into classroom practice, intervention programmes, and individual support plans where appropriate.
We believe that strong partnerships between families, school staff, and specialist professionals are key to ensuring the best possible outcomes for children.
If you would like further information about the external services we work with or wish to discuss support for your child, please contact the SENDCo, Miss Bateman.
