WELCOME BACK to Term 6 June 2022
It is hard to believe that we only have one more term of this academic year left, time is flying by as the children are progressing and enjoying more and more opportunities in school.
I will continue to post new and relevant materials linked with Additional Needs, Mental Health and SEND Wiltshire support materials I encourage you to scroll down to the bottom of the page again as there are a number of materials from last year which continue to be useful.
As usual if you have any queries or questions about SEND at Durrington CE Junior School which can't be answered from reading our website, Facebook page or by reading our SEND Information Report, please don't hesitate to contact me at school Monday to Wednesday.
