Barley Close Parents and Carers

Barley Close Parents and Carers is a friendly group for parents of children with SEN/D.  Informal meetings are held with Mrs Harris and Mrs Popel (SENCo) and other SEN/D support staff. This gives parents a chance to meet, share information and discover how their child is supported in school. We have taken part in a variety of activities from coffee mornings to Christmas crafts to visits from South Glos Parents and Carers and the School Nurse team.

Check both the website and Barley Close Parents and Carers facebook page to find out when the next meeting will be held. We hope that you will be able to join us for a cuppa and a chat!
