This morning we had the wonderful Steve from Down Syndrome Cheshire talking to us.

We are running a parent workshop around online dangers, grooming, exploitation and sextortion. Whilst you may not see this as a risk for your child, this is happening more and more across the Local Authority- and especially for children with SEND. Queensbury, a specialist service, have offered to deliver a short workshop for parents, highlighting the risks and offering practical support to apply parental controls on your devices etc. The workshop will take place on Thursday 26th March at 10.30am-11.30am at school. Places are limited, so if you would like to request a place, please contact the school office as soon as possible.
