Learning new skills and being placed in unfamiliar environments can be daunting for any pupil. It is essential for you as parent or guardian to provide support to your child, especially when they are learning outside of the school environment.

Familiarise yourself with the practicalities of their timetable so that you are aware of any uniform requirements and travel arrangements. By doing this, you will be able to anticipate times when they may need more support than usual. To obtain this information you should contact your child's school.

Considerations for parents/guardians:

	Attendance and punctuality of pupil
	Notifying home centre of absence
	Notifying changes in medical circumstances
	Supporting the learning programme

Supporting your child's future

It is important to note, that you will be supported at all times by partners involved in the partnership, particularly the Lead Partner. You should not hesitate to contact the partners if you have any concerns
