Outreach Support
Mowbray School is an associate member of the Swaledale Teaching Alliance and our expertise is available to other establishments through that organisation at www.swaledalealliance.org
Parental Contact
Tutors are the first point of contact with parents and every effort is made to ensure that regular and positive communication is maintained between the school and parents. The school actively seeks the involvement of parents in the education of their children. It is recognised that the support and encouragement of parents is often the crucial factor in achieving success for pupils with Special Educational Needs. There are support groups available to parents, including an active school parent and carer group Friends of Mowbray.
