I'll Go First!

The Planning and Review Toolkit for use with Children with Disabilities

All Children and young people have views about the care and education they receive. And they have a right to express those views and to have their wishes taken into account when key decisions are made. Children with disabilities are no exception.

I'll go First is designed for those with a responsibility towards the care and education of children with disabilities. The pack will enable social workers, key workers, reviewing officers, fostering and adoption workers, SEN co-ordinators and teachers to take full account of the views of children and young people in their daily work.

The I'll Go First pack is fully supported with a Good Practice Guide containing the theoretical background to the approach, practical advice and guidance on how this work can be done and incorporated into everyday practice.

The pack contains
Information on the planning and review process,
Advice on communicating with children with learning disabilities,
Practical guidance on how to use the pack,
16 colourful, hard-wearing boards with illustrations and simple sentences,
150 electrostatic stickers including over 30 emotions in Mayer-Johnson Picture Communications Symbols,
Widgit and Makaton translations of the boards,
A hard -wearing case to hold the materials.
