Educational Needs and Disability (SEND)
In line with our Mission Statement, which guides us to fulfil each child’s potential we strive to maintain a high quality curricular provision for each child, regardless of ability. A proportion of our children may have special needs and we aim to meet their requirements through a flexible, appropriate and varied provision.
The provision is co-ordinated by the school’s Special Educational Needs Co-ordinators (Early Years SENDCo) Mrs C Hughes (SENDCo) Mrs H Perry, who can be contacted via the school office.
