Hello and welcome to the Better Together online parental support hub! The Better Together group was formed by a number of special school staff responsible for leading school based behaviour support along with colleagues from Education Authority Services , Primary Behaviour Support & Provisions and Autism Advice & Intervention Service. The group's purpose was to share expertise, resources, experiences and knowledge in the area of managing complex social, behaviour, emotional and wellbeing (SBEW) needs. The group have been responsible for developing staff learning particularly in relation to supporting children and young people with complex SBEW needs. This has also helped to raise staff confidence and improve their skills through the use of a consistent and positive approach to responding to SBEW needs.
We recognise the importance of parental partnerships in supporting our children and young people and understand the increasing demands and challenges faced by our parental community. We are therefore delighted to be working as a group to provide a simple and easy-to-use website which parents and families will be able to navigate to access a range of resources, useful links, relevant support organisations, training programmes and much more. We hope that this will ease the pressure on parents and families as they try to navigate an ever-complex system of support and provide instant access to materials which will allow you to support your child within the home environment.
Our Better Together Parent Hub will change as the needs of our children and parents change so please keep checking for regular updates and additions. We look forward to supporting you and your child through our new online platform and will continue to support you all through existing school systems!
