Training, workshops and consultation surgeries
We have lots of events running that you can involved with.
Consultation surgeries
Early Years Area SENCO SEND consultation surgeries
Our Early Years Area SENCO runs consultation surgeries that Early Years SENDCOs, Early Years practitioners and childminders can attend in order to support settings with their graduated approach to SEN.
Consultations are also available for you to discuss and review SEN processes and practice within your settings generally; or related to individual children. Where the discussions is about an individual child, parents/carers are encouraged to attend to facilitate shared understanding and jointly agree actions.
To book a consultation, please contact Julie Thompson, Early Years Area SENCo:
Following your request, you'll be contacted to confirm the time for your consultation. Where the consultation is related to an individual child, consent forms will be sent to you and will need to be returned in advance of the consultation.
Early Years Educational Psychologist (EP) consultation sessions
EP consultations are for Early Years (EY) practitioners and childminders of EY children in Barnsley settings to access with parents/carers. Consultations can be booked for
- Children whose needs are being supported at SEN support but who aren’t making progress within the graduated approach.
- Children for whom EY settings and parents/carers may be considering submitting an Education Health and Care (EHC) needs assessment request.
The sessions are held virtually using Microsoft Teams. To discuss and book a consultation please contact Julie Thompson at juliethompson@barnsley.gov.uk
Consent forms will be sent to you with confirmation of your appointment and will need to be returned in advance with the child’s Early Years graduated response document. Parents/carers are encouraged to attend consultations to facilitate shared discussions about their child.
In preparation for the consultation it will be helpful for EY practitioner and parents/cares to consider the following
- What concerns you – developmental progress and barriers to learning
- What have you already tried and what is working
- What strengths can be built on
- What outcomes for the child would you like to focus on
EP consultation dates:
- Tuesday 18 October 2022
- Monday 28 November 2022
- Thursday 9 February 2023
- Wednesday 15 March 2023
- Tuesday 16 May 2023
- Wednesday 28 June 2023
Social communication and interaction consultation surgeries
Settings can request a SCI surgery at any given point in the year. These are currently held virtually via Microsoft Teams.
All educational settings working with children and young people can attend a surgery. Including teachers, teaching assistants, key workers and SENDCos. We encourage parents or carers to attend with you.
You can talk to us if:
- you're thinking of referring a child or young person to the SCI team but want to discuss their needs first and gain practical advice
- you need help setting SCI-based outcomes on a SEN support plan
Please use the flow chart to consider whether a SCI surgery would be an appropriate next step.
If it is you'll need to email the SCI practitioner. This is to inform them you have followed the flow chart, include the desired outcome and to tell them you're requesting the SCI surgery.
Slots are 45 minutes long and are designed to discuss one child. As always, parents/carers are encouraged to attend to add to the discussion and agree actions.
Following your request, the SCI practitioner will be in contact with you to confirm a surgery and give you the consent form. They could signpost you to a piece of centralised training instead. If it's felt a surgery is appropriate the consent form will need to be completed and signed by the parent/carer and returned to the SCI practitioner. This will need to be done in advance of the surgery going ahead. Without a signed consent form, unfortunately we'll not be able to discuss any children.
Settings in the following areas:
Town centre, Stairfoot, Kendray, Worsbrough, Thurnscoe, Goldthorpe
SCI Practitioner: Gemma Whitfield (gemmawhitfield@barnsley.gov.uk)
