 About Us
and Our Services
The introduction of the 2001 Special Educational Needs (SEN)
Code of Practice stated that all Local Authorities must provide
parents/carers with access to a Parent Partnership Service.
The Parent Partnership Service is at
arm's length from Worcestershire's Children's Services and we are
able to give independent and neutral advice. We support
parents/carers of children from 0-16 years and provide many
services to facilitate this support.

Special Educational Needs (SEN)
If you are concerned about your child's progress or your child
has been identified as having SEN, we can offer information and support on what this may
involve. For example explanation of the terminology used and
step-by-step guidance to SEN approaches.

Non-Curriculum Issues
Any school
issue not related to the curriculum. This may include issues
such as admissions, exclusions, bullying, attendance, etc.

Elective Home Education
If you are considering taking full responsibility for your
child's education and educating them at home yourself, we can offer
information and guidance on
responsibilities of home educators and discuss all options with
you.
