A look at the new 'Birmingham Transitions Approach' for our children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).

As we start to use the new 'Birmingham Transitions Approach', we would like to invite all setting SENCOs, EY leaders, key persons including childminders, as well as all EY practitioners to join us to discuss what this means for our children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).

How does it build on existing practice and effective support to children and families through transitions that we already have in place? What are the new forms and how will they work?

Come along to share your questions, comments, reflections, and ideas for us to work together across our settings.

This event is open to those working within the East Cluster DLP Districts of Hall Green, Hodge Hill and Yardley.

Developing Local Provision

The Developing Local Provision (DLP) initiative aims to enhance the work already being done by Early Years settings and mainstream schools in providing support to children in their local area.

Based on Birmingham’s SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) strategy, the DLP initiative is already in place in primary and secondary schools across the city. The Early Years DLP initiative will be delivered through the 10 District Early Years Networks.

The long-term aim is to establish high-quality local provision that successfully meets the needs of individual children, supporting them in their Early Year’s journey through to their chosen mainstream school where their needs will continue to be met well.
