    SEND

    Our INCO (Inclusion Co-ordinator) is Mrs Jessop. She works on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and a Friday. If you have any concerns or wish to discuss the needs and support of your child please contact her at inco@nashmills.herts.sch.uk or 01442 252952 to make an appointment.

    Please find below information  on how we support our children with SEND as well as links to resources which you may find useful.

    If a parent has a concern as to the provision in place for their child, they should initially speak to their class teacher and/or the Inclusion Coordinator.  If a parent is unhappy with the provision following these conversations, they are able to make an appointment to speak with the Headteacher, in line with the school's complaints procedure, which can be found on the policies page.

    Support for Learners who have Speech and Language Needs

    If you have some concerns about the speech of your child there are some suggestions below you could try. The Speech and Language therapists waiting lists are long but do not let that dissuade you feel your child has needs to seek support.

    Please try not to worry about your child. When using these materials make it fun and a game. A little and often will help your child, rather than a longer intensive session.

    If you do have concerns and wish to seek help, if your child is under four your health visitor can support you (school is not able to at this age). If you child is five or more please speak to Candy Jessop, INCO at the school.

    This link also has some good ideas on how to help your child:

    speech and language therapy, speech, language, Children's speech and language therapy, speech therapy, SALT, SLT | Hertfordshire Community NHS Trust

    This link has a video which will help you to support your child with speech sounds:
