SEND Support - A Note from Nichola Jones (Assistant Director Inclusion, SEND and Wellbeing)

 

Dear Parent,

I hope you and your family are well. I’m getting in touch to invite you to take part in our short survey to share your experiences during lockdown and tell us your views on the support you have received from different education services.

Please complete one survey for each child or young person with SEND. The survey is anonymous, however you can choose to include your contact details at the end if you would like to be more involved in shaping future SEND services.

Click here to access the survey

Please feel free to forward this email on to other families of children and young people with SEND.

Thank you for taking part. We really value your feedback in helping us to monitor and continually improve our services for SEND families.  

Please note that the survey will close at 12 midnight on Monday 13 July 2020.

With very best wishes,

Nichola Jones

Assistant Director Inclusion, SEND and Wellbeing

 

🌟 Could your design be our new curriculum logo? 🌟


A logo is a symbol or other small design that is adopted by organisations to identify their products, like the Timberley tree 🌳 on your school uniform and the big yellow for McDonald’s.  

Can you create a logo that will be attached to Timberley Academy’s revamped curriculum from September 2020? We would love 💓 to see your ideas!💡

Parents/Carers, your ideas 💡 are welcome 🙏🏼 too! 

Next academic year, we will have a greater focus on personal goals. The six personal goals are below:

Independence, Resilience, Co-operation, Communication, Respect, Thoughtfulness 

Using the six personal goals, get creative!
🧑🏽‍🎨👩🏻‍🎨👨🏼‍🎨
Please email 📧 your logo ideas 💡 to Miss Russell.

Take care, stay healthy and have fun!
