Help and Support for Parents and Carers of Children with SEND

Possible Self-Isolation due to COVID-19 (Coronavirus)

These are strange and difficult times for everyone and our children with SEND may be finding current events and restrictions especially difficult to make sense of. Here are some sources of help and advice which you may find useful, and some resources to use at home with your children. Stay safe and keep well.

Mrs Baker and the Blackhall Primary School Team.

Social stories are short descriptions of a situation, event or activity, which can help children understand what to expect in that situation and why, and reduce their anxiety. They can help a person to cope with changes to routine and unexpected or distressing events. Here are some social stories you may find helpful to share with your child.
