SEND/Inclusion
The Learning Support Department consists of a team of dedicated staff, committed to meeting pupils' individual needs. Our SENCO is Mrs Kelly and two Assistant SENCOs are Miss Clarke and Miss Daulton . The department has qualified, experienced teachers who work closely with teaching assistants and mainstream staff to provide a whole school approach to learning support. We believe that every pupil should be valued as an individual and the curriculum is designed to be broad, balanced and scaffolded to meet individual needs. Educational inclusion is about equal opportunities for all learners whatever their age, gender, ethnicity, impairment, attainment and background and this is something that we strive to achieve.
Support for a wide range of individual needs is available os an in-class or out of class support basis. Careful monitoring of progress, target setting, reviewing and assessment are an integral part of departmental work, which is child centred in order to promote the highest potential in each pupil. We believe that the encouragement and support of parents, working in partnership with school is the best way to meet special educational needs.

As a department we aim to ensure that:
- Pupils with SEND are educated, wherever possible, in an inclusive environment alongside their peers to enable each pupil to reach his or her full potential in and out of appropriate classes.
- Pupils with learning difficulties are able to access their entitlement to a broad ambitious, balanced and relevant curriculum as part of the whole school community.
- Levels of additional support for learning are provided for the wide variety of individual learning difficulties, while enhancing the self esteem of the pupils.
- We identify and assess pupils with SEND as early and as thoroughly as possible using the revised Code of Practice (2014).
- Parents/carers and pupils are fully involved in the identification and assessment of SEND, and that we strive for close cooperation between all agencies concerned, using a multi-disciplinary approach.
- The needs of all pupils with SEND are met by offering appropriate and flexible forms of educational provision, by the most efficient use of all available resources.
