Support for SEND

The support available to help learners in Wiltshire

Student working at desk
Most learners within their education setting are supported by the strategies and resources we expect to be available to all students. Sometimes extra support is provided to education settings by professionals who are experts in different areas of need.
 
All children and young people may have additional needs at some point in their lifetime. Additional needs can be short term or long term, and additional support may be needed for a short period of time while for others additional support is needed for longer periods of time.  Additional needs could involve learning, communication, behaviour, or emotional wellbeing. Sometimes, additional needs may be called special educational needs or disabilities, (SEND).
