Down Syndrome (STEPS)

Support Team for Education in Primary & Secondary Schools (STEPS)

Referrals to the STEPS service can be made, by schools, using the Royal Borough of Greenwich SEND Outreach Services referral form - or you can call the team on 020 8921 3311. 

What do STEPS do?

An initial assessor will visit the school to do an initial observation and meet with the child alongside staff supporting the child. Following the observation, a meeting with the SENCO, parents, class teacher and support staff can be arranged to discuss the type of support that can be offered.

The setting’s allocated outreach worker will then provide termly visits and ongoing support for the child and staff. Progress will be monitored, and targets and approaches may be adapted when needed. Our staff are willing to attend transition meetings and Annual Reviews.
