    Start by going to your LA's website
    There you will find the 'Local Offer' which will explain how your LA offers help to those children and families with SEND
    You may also find helpful suggestion on how to update your SEND policy and possibly training courses to help you as well

    Good luck!

    Can that poster help you with updating your SEND policy? do keep in your EYFS portfolio
    what would you do if a child had SEND...how would you work with parents to get the 'Local Offer' and get a EH Plan for a particular child
    SEND also includes certain medical conditions that are covered by this new govt policy...anything that may prevent or put barriers in a child's learning.

    Also every LA has an officer dedicated to SEND...are you able to call and get support in what you need to have in your file? I believe they have to provide this to everyone.

    Good luck!

    Our LA had a SEND Local Offer template for us to fill in, it was not difficult- just saying to a potential parent how you would support them and their child. It is not about making changes, just about how you would approach a family if they enquired or if a child who was in your care developed SEND needs. Definitely ask your LA.
