Sensory processing differences

The Healthy Child Service provides information, advice and support for children from birth to 19-years-old and their carers. Health Visitors will work with expectant parents and children under 6 and their families to support development, emotional wellbeing and school readiness.

Let's Make Sense Together Resources are free and includes a series of videos to help parents, carers, teachers, and others who support children with sensory processing differences. You’ll also find helpful advice sheets and links to other support and information. The information has been created by local therapists at York and Scarborough Teaching Hospital.

NYES Information supports educators to deliver an outstanding learning experience for all children and young people by providing a wide range of support services that enable schools to deliver a high-quality education provision.

All schools have a named Special Educational Needs and Disabilities Coordinator (SENDCo) who will be able to offer advice and guidance to meet all children's needs. The offer of support from schools and settings is described on North Yorkshire Council's Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) specialist support and inclusion page. This includes Inclusive Practice framework.

Early Help is all about providing the right support to children and families at the earliest possible time. Find out more about the social care Early Help offer on the North Yorkshire Council website.
