South Gloucestershire SEND support:

Parents may be anxious at this time and we have a SEND Covid helpline that they can use staffed by members of the ISS, BSS and EP teams. Parents can contact us with their COVID queries on SENDCOVIDenquiry@southglos.gov.uk or 01454 866123. The telephone helpline is available between 9 and 1 on weekdays (except Bank Holidays) but parents can leave a message or email in at any time. We aim to get back to parents within 48 hours. Any questions posed to this helpline will be used to inform an FAQ section on the South Gloucestershire website.
