unsure my child has send
Something doesn't feel quite right?
If you’re feeling unsure whether your child may have special educational needs or a disability (SEND), you’re not alone. Many parents notice small concerns long before they have a name or explanation for them. SENDCO Services offers calm, informed support to help you understand what you’re seeing, what it might mean, and what steps you can take next — without pressure, judgement or unnecessary labels.
How we can support you:
- Talking through your concerns and helping you make sense of what you’re noticing
- Explaining what SEND is (and isn’t) in clear, parent-friendly language
- Helping you understand what support schools should be offering at different stages
- Advising on when assessment or further investigation may be helpful
- Supporting you to communicate effectively with your child’s school
- Helping you feel confident, informed and empowered to advocate for your child

communicating with school
Not sure how to talk to school?
Talking to school about your child’s needs can feel daunting — especially if you’re worried about being misunderstood, dismissed, or labelled as “that parent”. SENDCO Services supports parents to communicate clearly, confidently and constructively with schools, helping ensure your child’s needs are understood and taken seriously. We help you prepare, organise your thoughts, and know what to ask for, so conversations stay focused on support and outcomes for your child.
How we can support you:
- Helping you organise concerns and priorities before contacting school
- Advising on what to raise, how to raise it, and who to speak to
- Supporting you to prepare for meetings, emails or reviews
- Explaining school processes, language and expectations in plain English
- Helping you understand your rights and what schools are expected to provide
- Supporting calm, productive communication — even when conversations feel difficult

My Child Has EOTIS EHCP - What Now?
If your child has an Education Other Than at School (EOTIS) EHCP, it can feel isolating, uncertain and overwhelming. Parents often find themselves managing complex arrangements while trying to ensure their child’s needs are met and their wellbeing is protected. SENDCO Services provides informed, practical support to help you understand your child’s provision, your rights, and how to move forward with confidence.
How we can support you:
- Explaining what an EOTIS EHCP means in practice and what provision should look like
- Helping you understand your child’s entitlements and the local authority’s responsibilities
- Supporting you to review whether provision is appropriate, sufficient and being delivered
- Advising on communication with the local authority, providers and professionals
- Supporting preparation for annual reviews or urgent reviews
- Helping you plan next steps, whether that’s continuing EOTIS, reintegration, or alternative provision
