SEND Information
Welcome to the Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) page.
Our vision is to provide our children with an education that will empower them to become the best they can be. All pupils will leave our school having received a broad, balanced and inclusive education that not only prepares them for future success, but also promotes a deeper understanding of the world around them.
In this section you will find out how we identify children with SEND and the provision that we put in place to help meet their needs. We believe that every child has the right to achieve their full potential. We aim to raise the aspirations of, and expectations for, all pupils with Special Educational Needs.
The Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator in school is Mrs Lartey. If you have any questions about SEND then please do not hesitate to come into school to arrange to speak to our Inclusion Team.
Mrs B. Lartey: SENDCO
Mrs M. Bull: EYFS SENDCO
Mrs B. Abell: Safeguarding Officer
