Here at Kingsley Special Academy we offer regular parent courses, run by school staff in their specialist areas. 

Communication

Our communication leads hold regular courses and training. Sign-a-long is the method of sign language we use in school, families are invited to a one session per week course over three weeks to gain a good understanding and be able to use this form of sign language.

We also run communication evenings to help families gain a better understanding of the form of communication their child is using. There are many types of communication used in school, with pupils using what is best for them, these evenings give families a chance to ask any questions and look at the many resources we have in school.

Internet Safety

Once a year we run an information evening for families around all types of internet safety. Our internet safety lead will talk through all areas of internet safety such as parental controls, age restrictions and keeping children safe online. Support or advice is available any time with any type of device, please contact the school.

Behaviour

Challenging behaviour can be difficult for the whole family. Our behaviour leads offer advice, support, tips and tricks to help support with this should it be needed.

Fussy Eating

Our commissioned sensory occupational therapy lead offers an evening offering support and advice for families struggling with all areas of food and eating. 

The family support team are always on hand to discuss any areas of support or concern. We are happy to give advice and can support with accessing external services if needed.
