Every Child Matters - Tom's Team

January 21, 2014 by Administrator

Tom's Team looks at what happens when children's services don't communicate and how this can be resolved.

Tom is a Year 5 pupil with Asperger's who relies on the support of education and healthcare agencies to help keep him in a mainstream school.

Tom's family feel that communication between different agencies has, at times, broken down. His dad, Steve, believes he has had to act as Tom's champion in order to get the support his son needs to succeed.

Lesley Platts, an NHS team leader and Paul Murphy, a pastoral inclusion consultant, discuss how a more integrated approach to providing children's services can give both teachers and agency professionals the tools they need to help children like Tom.
