Walsall Children's Services

Consultation and Inclusion Support Services (CISS) brings together Walsall Children’s Services SEN and Inclusion Support Services with the aim of providing greater continuity of service provision within the School Focus Team arrangements. It provides a unified structure within which the Educational Psychology Service and Inclusion Support Services (Advisory Teacher Team, Specialist Support Team and Early Years SEN Team) will work together whilst retaining their distinctive team identity.

The School Focus Team Inclusion Planning Meetings provide the vehicle for access to consultation and support. The Educational Psychology Service and Advisory Teacher Team operate a time allocation model through which schools receive an agreed number of sessions over the year.

The Educational Psychology Service and Advisory Teacher Team are based at the Education Development Centre. All Educational Psychologists and Advisory Teachers can be contacted as follows:
