The HOPE Centre For Inclusion
We are pleased to share the success of our recent Open Day at HOPECFI, where we had the privilege of welcoming parents, professionals, and members of the local community to experience our provision and vision for inclusive, specialised education for children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities.
We were especially honoured to welcome Mr. Ben Allchin, former SENSAP Lead, and the Lord Mayor of Leeds, Councillor Abigail Marshall-Katung. Their presence underscored the strong community support for our mission. Their visit reaffirmed our shared commitment to creating meaningful, positive change for children with SEND in Leeds.
We extend our sincere gratitude to everyone who attended. Your interest, support, and belief in HOPECFI’s mission inspire us to continue developing a transformative provision for children in need of specialised support. For those unable to join us, we encourage you to reach out for further information or to arrange a visit to learn more about our approach and future plans.
While we have successfully obtained our Ofsted registration since Summer, we are currently awaiting formal endorsement from SENSAP to enable direct funding for children to attend HOPECFI. In the meantime, schools may allocate resources from their SEN budget to fund placements, allowing children to benefit from our provision while the final funding mechanisms are established by Leeds City Council Children Services and applications for children's EHCP Reviews are processed by SENSAP.
We look forward to ongoing collaboration with parents, professionals, and community members as we work together to foster an environment where every child can thrive.
