SEND Provision

Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) provision is led by the SENCo, Mrs Sturgess. The Inclusion Team works with parents and appropriate outside agencies to meet children’s needs. A child requiring additional help may have an individual educational plan (IEP) and, in some cases, may apply for an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP). A copy of our SEND policy is available on the site and further information can be found via the Local Offer.
