SENDIASS guidance for Professionals

We offer legally based information, advice and training to education, health and social care professionals.

Professional advice and guidance

At Herefordshire and Worcestershire SENDIASS, we offer legally based information, advice and training to education, health and social care professionals.

Our advisors cannot discuss specific cases with you without consent from the parent/carer or young person and we cannot take referrals from you.

A parent/carer or young person must refer themselves to our service. However, we can offer general information and advice on all matters relating to Special Education Needs and Disabilities (SEND).

We also offer information and training sessions for education professionals.
