Thank you to those who attended our Coffee Morning on Tuesday 4th July. We hope you found this useful in further understanding the provision and support available at Cypress Primary School for children with SEND (Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities) and specifically Dyslexia and Dyscalculia. Thanks to Taryn McLelland and Suelaka Ebrahim for leading our coffee morning.
Ms McLelland is leaving Cypress Primary School at the end of this academic year to take up a promotion at local school and we are very sad to see her leave. We know many parents will wish to join us in thanking her for her hard work at Cypress and support for so many of our children and families. Mrs Ebrahim, who many of you already know as Indigo class teacher, will be our new Inclusion Manager from September 2023.
Here are some links to some useful resources and websites:
- SEND at Pegasus
