School Outreach Service

This was introduced in September 2021 when ‘LETS GO!’ www.letsgouk.org were engaged to deliver the service to primary schools.

An education outreach worker specialising in children with Down Syndrome will visit the child in their school setting and provide support. They will give advice and information to staff and parents and they will make recommendations regarding evidence based learning activities and strategies relevant to the individual child. The service includes observation in the classroom, one to one individual assessment and target setting with the child and teaching assistant.

Secondary School Outreach was introduced in the Spring Term of 2023 with the engagement of Victoria Ralfs.

The outreach visits are a half day once a term and at the conclusion of each visit parents are given a written report. The service is designed to be flexible and tailored to meet the individual needs of the child and the school.

This is available for all school age members, mostly attending mainstream schools.
