We're delighted to share with you a new set of translations from edsy.org.uk, with information about the EP role in Romanian, Bengali and Arabic, adding to existing translations in Polish, Urdu and Panjabi.

The AEP contributed to producing these resources and we know they are valued. Many professionals (EPs and beyond), SEN support services, LAs, families and schools have shared how useful it is to have highly accessible, jargon free, freely available translations that describe what EPs do and how they do it.

The content and the translations are designed to be open-access and shareable. Services and professionals are welcome (and encouraged) to share and adapt any of the content. Please be mindful and ensure you give appropriate credit and indicate if changes were made, don't use the content primarily for commercial purposes and make your own contributions shareable.
