The Willow Bank Families Group was created to give all parents and carers of children at our school a helpful space to meet to build relationships, share information and to offer advice support and guidance.
The Aims of Willow Bank Families
- To create an environment where all parents and carers know that their views matter, and where they feel confident and comfortable putting them forward.
- To work in partnership to create a welcoming and inclusive school.
- To give parents and carers an opportunity to support one another with their shared experiences of raising a child with complex needs.
- To engage in a variety of activities that will strengthen the bonds between parents, carers and school staff, boost self-confidence, and enhance positive mental health.
- To provide an opportunity for parents and carers to access any SEND related training needs or to meet with external support agencies.
