You don’t need to make an appointment. (The vaccines do not contain pork).

Dates for EY Forum 2024-25
If a child from your setting is due to be discussed at Early Years Forum, you will receive a setting information request form for you to update forum on the child’s progress. It is crucial this is completed in time for the meeting so panel can have an accurate up-to-date picture so the relevant support can be put in place.
If you require further information, you can request a call back from a member of the EYSENIS team as part of the Tuesday call back service who will be happy to support you. Further information on how to do this can be found in the 'EY Area SENCO Team helpline' section below.
