SENDIAS Resources

At SENDIAS, one of our main aims is to empower parent carers and young people to move their situation forward themselves. This is done primarily by providing information and advice through our various resources, which include factsheets, guides, and webinars.

  • Factsheets: generally 2-sided, explaining the basics of a subject.
  • Practical Steps Guides: Generally a series of factsheets, giving step-by-step guidance to help those working through certain processes themselves.
  • Key Guides: These provide an overview of the main points of a subject in regard to what the law and statutory guidance say and signpost you to other sources for more detailed information and advice. .
  • Webinars: visual or audible guidance on our main topics.
  • Translations: Some of our webinars and factsheets have been translated into the main languages used in West Sussex.

To print our resources:

  • Our Factsheets and Practical Steps Guides will need to be downloaded first and can then be printed from there.
  • Our other Guides and webpages can be printed by clicking on the Print Icon at the top right of the page or ‘print’ at the bottom of the page. On a computer, where a page can be expanded (there will usually be arrows), click on the icon and then you can click on the arrows to show the information and then right-click on your mouse and ‘print’. Unfortunately, the print function does not currently work for drop down boxes.

If you have additional needs and/or cannot find the information you seek within our resources, don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.

Please note: we will gradually be updating or adding more resources to our pages so do check in regularly.

For those who don’t want to be overwhelmed by words or legal jargon, and just want the ‘must knows’ and next step options of a particular SEN related topic.

These are step-by-step practical guides, to help those working through certain processes themselves.

For those who want to delve deeper into the law and guidance around a particular topic and thereby feel empowered to move their own situation forward.
