The Big Issue Backchat from SPTC

There are three big issues for parents in this issue of Backchat

– The Named Person proposal from Government and what that means for every child, parent and carer in Scotland

– SQA’s changes to its Reasonable Adjustments to qualifications, affecting young people with significant support needs

– Proposals for changes to the process around school closures

We’ve also launched a new partnership, so can now offer  A free Film Club resource for Parent Groups!

Read Backchat here.

Plus, here is all the information you need on SPTC’s membership-linked insurance. There have been some updates and improvements, so this is important stuff!

Hope you enjoy reading this issue – please let us know your thoughts on any of these or other education issues!

PS: the current Parents Voice survey is on the question of the Named Person. This affects you! If you’re not already signed up, please consider doing so. It’s important we get as many parents and carers as possible to tell us their views.
