Parent Partnership Service

Does your child have special educational needs and is under the age of 19?

Doncaster Parent Partnership Service can provide impartial information, guidance and support for parents and carers of children with any level of special educational needs.

The best results can be achieved if parents, carers, teachers and others involved can work together to make a difference to your child's education.

Our team can advise parents and carers to give them the knowledge and the confidence they need to enable them to make their views heard and understood.
