The Early Intervention team is part of EISAS and includes professionals from a variety of disciplines in education including Educational Psychologists, Social Emotional and Mental Health Advisory Teachers, Early Intervention Team Social Workers, SEN Strategic Support Partners and AEN/SEN Support Partners.
