SEN statement

Provided by the school and not part of our review

We aim to provide sufficient and appropriate support to pupils who have been identified as having special needs to ensure they make good appropriate progress in their learning. Children are taught as part of the mainstream classes although they may qualify for 1:1 support or additional time from our Taeching Assistants. We do not have a special unit; our SENCO is also our inclusion manager and is well qualified to provide advice and training to teachers and support staff. She also provides outreach support for other schools in the borough who have pupils with autism as part of our Enhanced Specialist Teaching Arrangement with the LA. There is a strong commitment of all staff to SEN/inclusion with continuous training including: ASD, Speech and Language, MCD, basic Makaton. We have good liaison with special schools and external specialists. In addition we have an excellent SEN team of SENCO and TAs /LSAs, who have all attended speech and language course and various others.
