Important information for young people with SEND: Scotty's recognises that for young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) the Allowance may need to be used more flexibly. If you (or your child if a parent or carer is helping with the application!) are unable to participate in traditional extra curricular activities there may be other suitable uses for the Allowance. Some recent examples include accessing Speech Language Therapy and purchasing equipment to allow a child to communicate. If you are unsure if your idea qualifies please do ask the families team.
