Parent Zone 
Welcome to the SEND parents zone.
Here you will find additional information regarding the processes and support for children with SEND here at Park Brow. You will also be sign posted to support that you can access outside of school.
Social Communication and interaction
The following information points and checklists may help you if you have concerns with your child’s ability to interact and with their social communication skills.
Speech and language
At Park Brow we monitor the progress of the language and communication skills of the children from the moment that they arrive in Nursery. We undertake intervention groups at WAVE 2 Through the I can Talk Programme, one to one intervention with our dedicated speech therapist and make referrals for children with more complex needs to attend speech and language clinic. If you have concerns with the development of your child’s speech and language please speak to your child’s class teacher.
