Support staff work with teachers to support SEND, with additional support to improve reading, writing and mathematical skills where appropriate. All Birmingham schools share a Local Offer for SEND information, and parents are encouraged to attend review meetings to contribute to student profiles. The Local Offer Birmingham information is linked from the site.
