PANS PANDAS UK education resource now live on the SEND network

Did you know that PANS PANDAS UK partners with the SEND Network? This collaboration aims to raise awareness and improve education support for children and young people living with PANS and PANDAS. 

As part of this initiative, a range of PANS and PANDAS educational resources are now available on the SEND network website including the newly published ‘A Summary for Teachers’. This resource provides straightforward guidance to support education and allied professionals better understand these conditions, and to implement effective support strategies. 

We encourage all professionals working with children and young people including teachers, SENCOs, and other allied professional to explore and share these resources.
