SEND Workshops & Training Service

Oldham’s SEND Workshops & Training Service is the latest service to be operated by POINT.  The service currently provides FREE support to parents and carers in the form of workshops & training.  The offer of support includes:

  • A rolling programme of themed training workshops which aim to inform and equip parents and carers with a better understanding of their children’s needs, and strategies to help support their children’s areas of difficulty.
  • Information marketplace events, designed to enable parents and carers to quickly and easily access information and advice from a range of services and providers.
  • One-to-one follow up sessions offered where needed, following attendance at workshops, to further support parents and carers develop their understanding.
  • Signposting to other appropriate support services.
  • Support and advice from service co-ordinators in person, over the phone, or via email.
