Thank you to those who attended our Coffee Morning on Thursday 4th May. We hope you found this useful in further understanding the provision and support available at Cypress Primary School for children with SEND (Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities) and specifically Dyslexia and Dyscalculia. Thanks to Taryn McLelland for leading our coffee morning today.

Our final coffee morning of the academic year will be on Tuesday 4th July at 9.15am in the Community Room (Lower School). We are planning to focus on strategies for parents to support their child’s transition into the next school year. Ms McLelland is asking families to share what else they’d find useful so please email her if you have any feedback.
