Our vision of Love, Learn, Shine strongly influences our approach and commitment to all children including children with additional needs. All children are nurtured as individuals taking into account any additional needs or learning differences. As articulated within our vision, we deeply value every child as an individual recognising that achievement comes in many forms.
Learning with, from and alongside children with range of learning differences helps all children become sensitive and supportive of diversity, preparing them well for life in modern Britain.
Support for children with special educational needs and disabilities is systematically planned and sensitively delivered by our dedicated team of teachers and support staff. This provision is monitored and evaluated by Mrs Jones our dedicated SENDCO, Paul Griffiths our Headteacher and Linda McPhee our SEND governor.
‘Leaders, including the special educational needs coordinator (SENCo), are resolute in their commitment to inclusion. There is a shared understanding among all staff that the progress of pupils, including those with SEND, is everyone’s responsibility. Leaders ensure that information is shared with teachers in a timely manner so that teaching can be adapted to meet the needs of individual pupils. Consequently, pupils with SEND are making good progress towards their individual targets.’
