Seren of the month – March 2024

March 2024

This month, we are shouting out a big thank you to four Seren’s of the month!!!!

The SSCE Cymru Regional School Liaison Officers (RSLOs) have been instrumental in the growth of the SSCE Cymru programme over the past few years. There personal and professional experiences has brought a wealth of knowledge to the programme, that has enabled us to increase our support package and resources. This means that education settings in Wales now have a much stronger understanding of Service children’s experiences and are well prepared to support this unique group of learners.

Each of you has been an absolute pleasure to work with. You are incredibly hardworking, dedicated, enthusiastic and have all been strong advocates for Service children in Wales.

Thank you, thank you, thank you - good luck with your next steps - we will miss you so very much!
