Special Educational Needs
The school adopts a positive approach to all individual learning needs, and this is particularly the case with children who may require additional support for their learning. At some point during your child’s time at school, he/she may show signs of needing extra support in his/her work or behaviour. We will share our concerns with you and hope you will do likewise as early as possible so that we can work together to assess and meet the individual needs of each pupil. This process is assisted by the Advisory Teacher for Learning Support and uses the ‘record of support’ to assist planning and the review of progress.
The school’s Special Educational Needs Policy explains the procedures for monitoring children’s progress, the way the school implements the Code of Practice and the current level of provision for Special Educational Needs. This information, plus the DFES and Local Education Authority advice, is available for parents at school.
MOST IMPORTANTLY we hope that if parents have any concerns regarding their children that they will contact the school as soon as possible.
