Parent Support & Child Registration

Helping Parents Find Suitable Education Support for Their Child

Welcome to Inclusion Bridge.

We understand that finding the right support for your child can feel challenging, especially when your child may benefit from additional learning support, a Learning Support Assistant, Teaching Assistant, Shadow Teacher or Education Support Professional.

Inclusion Bridge supports parents by helping them explore their child’s general education support needs and connect with suitable, prepared and quality-assured education support professionals.

Our role is to help parents identify Learning Support Assistants (LSAs), Teaching Assistants (TAs), or Shadow Teachers and Education Support Professionals who may be able to support students in accessing learning, building confidence, developing independence and engaging more effectively in school or educational settings.

At Inclusion Bridge, we aim to make the process clearer, more supportive and more reassuring for families, while promoting high standards of professionalism, safeguarding and respectful support for every child.
