Stronger Practice Hub Event

Positive relationships with parents are at the heart of good early years practice, but supporting families when a child has emerging or identified SEND can bring additional complexities. This reflective, practical session explores what meaningful partnership looks like in these situations — navigating different perspectives and sensitive conversations, and ensuring parents' knowledge of their child genuinely informs practice, assessment and planning.
