School to School Support
The School to School support programme has built upon a number of very successful pilot projects where specialist expertise from our complex needs schools has been utilised to provide support for individual learners, in mainstream schools, and also to build capacity in mainstream schools to cater for specific special needs.
With the success of the School to School support programme, the Local Authority is continuing to commission our consortium of complex needs schools to ensure that access to such support is possible for all mainstream schools.
School to School support aims to offer relevant and practical support, empower all stakeholders and develop effective, sustainable practice. Support may include: observations and recommendations in relation to pupils’ learning environments, curriculum or resources, developing skills, knowledge and confidence, training for all stakeholders, modelling strategies and approaches to meet individual need.
How can I access support
You can make an initial referral by going to www.s2support.co.uk
The project is administered by Sheringham Woodfields School who will process your referral and put you in contact with the most appropriate support, usually from your local complex needs school, unless particular specialisms are required or demands on capacity are uneven across the authority.
What will it cost
The main part of the cost of support will be covered by the Local Authority’s commissioning of the work, but schools receiving support from the scheme will be asked to make a one-off payment of £25 per intervention to help with running costs.
