Children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)

From time to time many children will need special help to overcome a learning difficulty. Our Inclusion Leader ensures that a programme of support is in place for these children to meet their individual needs. Children have their own ‘Individual Learning Plan ‘(ILP) drawn up by the class teacher in liaison with the Inclusion Leader, parents, teaching assistants and the children. The ILP is carefully implemented, monitored and progress reviewed on a regular basis, in line with the Code of Practice for SEND. Additional help is available when appropriate from Educational Psychologists and other outside support agencies including Speech and Language Therapy. Further information is available in school including leaflets on Parent Partnership which works to support parents of children with special needs, and our Parent Support Advisor. If you are concerned about your child's progress, please make an appointment to see your child's teacher at the earliest opportunity.
