To make a referral you will need to complete the Woolgrove Outreach referral form and gain parental consent. A slight change to the referral process is being implemented and we now ask that you send any referrals to our new, dedicated referral email address (DSPL1 schools) outreachreferrals@woolgrove.herts.sch.uk (DSPL5 schools) outreachdspl5@woolgrove.herts.sch.uk. Please note that we cannot accept referral forms via the normal email system due to data protection restrictions. Referrals should be sent via Schools FX (not Herts fx). You do not need an invite to use Schools FX.
Alternatively, we are going to be trialling an online Microsoft form that can be used to submit referrals instead of emailing as mentioned above. There is an option to see the form before you complete it so that you know what information will be needed and you can print and save a copy of the form for your records. This also enables you to send a copy of the signed parent consent form. The link for this can be found HERE
All referrals will be shared with the ISL Advisory Service so that we can avoid any duplication of work. Please only refer to Outreach if pupils are not already being supported by an advisory teacher, otherwise, we will likely be advised to turn down your referral.
Please note, that there is usually a delay in starting a referral and the current wait time is approximately one term for DSPL1 schools. If you have not heard from us to acknowledge receipt of your referral within 2 weeks, please contact us to check that we have received it.
