Southampton Inclusion Partnership
We are an educational partnership comprising of regional special schools, the University of Winchester and Southampton City Council, alongside other local mainstream primary and secondary partners who form our wider alliance.
Southampton Inclusion Partnership provides Training to support mainstream and special schools develop provision for pupils with SEND. Our Outreach Service provides a range of support for children and young people with SEND and behavioural needs in mainstream schools and other settings.
