SUPPORT AND INFORMATION FOR FAMILIES AND PARENTS OF PUPILS WITH SEND, ADDITIONAL NEEDS AND/OR MENTAL HEALTH DIFFICULTIES
Keep checking this page for new information from the school and Wiltshire's services
Autumn Term 3 2025
Happy New Year to you, we hope the holiday was all that your family wished for. Transitioning back to school after a holiday can be challenging for many pupils and therefore communication is the key. Some pupils need reassurance about the learning and or friendships, some need facts and dates shared and all need to feel heard. Please remember to communicate with your child's class teacher(s) to find the best fit for your child.
Please continue to use this site this term to support you and your child's needs. I will post new and relevant materials linked with SEND, additional needs, mental health and SEND Wiltshire support materials.
As usual if you have any queries or questions about SEND at Durrington CE Junior School which can't be answered from reading our website, Facebook page or by reading our SEND Information Report, please don't hesitate to contact me at school Monday to Thursday.
