Upcoming events
As a parent or caregiver of a student with special education needs you have a very important role in your child’s education.
You know your child better than anybody else. A partnership between you, the school and other professionals will enable your child to progress at their own pace towards agreed goals, and respond to challenges that will help them develop their potential in all areas of learning.
The IEP workshop is about knowing what your child is entitled to, and how you can ensure the best outcome for your child.
To help fund this workshop we are asking for a koha of $6 which can be paid on the night.
For families raising children with disabilities or health impairments.
If you have any queries please contact Laura on 03 365 4349 or email gtrcanterbury@parent2parent.org.nz
