SEND Resources & Support for Parents 

At Mulgrave, we believe in Every Child being a Success — and that means helping all families find the guidance, tools, and support they need. If your child has additional needs, or you have concerns, here are some trusted online resources, places to go, and general advice. And remember, Mulgrave’s experienced Inclusion Team is always here to listen, guide, and help you through any process.

Local Places & Services 

  • Greenwich Local Offer — covers all the support, services and opportunities available in our borough for families of children with SEND.  

  • NHS and Local Health Services — speech & language therapy, occupational therapy, mental health services, diagnostic teams.  

  • Charities & Support Groups — such as the National Autistic Society branches, local autism support groups, etc. These often run events, social groups, peer support and workshops.  

  • SEND Tutoring Services — for extra learning support tailored to your child’s needs. 

 

General Tips & Advice for Parents 

  • Don’t wait for a formal diagnosis — if you notice your child needs extra support, raise concerns with school early. Early support often makes a big difference.  

  • Keep records of what you observe: what helps, what makes things harder, professional reports, meetings, etc. This helps with planning and decision‑making.  

  • Work closely with Mulgrave’s Inclusion Team: share what works at home, what doesn’t, your child’s strengths, interests, and fears.  

  • Try to find parent/carer groups or networks — talking to others in similar situations can offer both practical tips and emotional support.  

  • Use online learning tools that are SEND‑friendly (accessible design, flexible pace, visuals, etc.).
