Further information

This is a workshop for parents and carers who might be interested in becoming a parent representative. It is for parents of children with additional needs or a disability because there is funding in Cambridgeshire to support these parents to become representatives, but other parents are welcome to attend.

We will talk about:

• the role of the parent representative - the do's and don'ts
• what we mean by parent participation
• how to manage tricky situations
• who's who in Cambridgeshire - how are decisions made and who by
• the support parent representatives need - good practice
