DSPL9 Specialist Secondary Transition Support

Specialist Secondary Transition Support:

Within the DSPL9 team we have a Specialist Transition outreach worker. They offer (subject to criteria)

 

  • 1:1 bespoke support for children in year 6 (without EHCP) moving up to a community secondary school, who have (including their family), complex needs that require intensive involvement to ensure a successful transition.

September/October: There are surgery-style sessions in primary schools for parents of year 6 students providing:

  • secondary transition advice to parents starting the process, 
  • how best to use the Hertfordshire application system 
  • practical advice on supporting their child into secondary life.

March allocation day onwards, there will be surgery-style sessions in primary schools for parents on next steps including:

  • what to do next if they are unhappy, 
  • advice on appealing 
  • practical advice on supporting their child into secondary life
