Ethos & Values

"Together we can empower our pupils to take on the world."

Brave Kind Curious

Head Teacher's Message

I am extremely passionate about the culture of possibility. By teaching the values of brave, kind and curious, alongside a cohesive and well-taught curriculum, we want to empower the pupils of Daven to take on the world; we want our pupils to believe they can accept any challenge; and that sometimes, the only way to do this is to take risks.

SEND Provision

Our aim is for every pupil to fulfil their potential in all areas of development. We achieve this using early needs identification and providing support as necessary in response to these needs. We believe that all teachers are teachers’ of SEND. Our key principles are: To identify, at the earliest opportunity, barriers to learning and participation. To enable all children, whatever their special educational need or disability, to receive appropriate educational provision through a broad, balanced curriculum. To involve parents/carers in planning and supporting at all stages of their child’s development. To ensure that pupils with SEND have a voice and are given opportunities to express an opinion and that this opinion will be taken into account in matters affecting them. To work closely with external support agencies, where appropriate, to support the needs of individual pupils. We implement an Early Identification Pathway. Early identification and adaptations to teaching ensure that most children’s needs can be met as part of the school’s normal provision. A child is classed as having Special Educational Needs if they have a learning difficulty or disability that requires special educational provision to be made for them. They have a learning difficulty or disability if they have: A significantly greater difficulty in learning than most others of the same age, or a disability which prevents or hinders them from making use of facilities of a kind generally provided for others of the same age in mainstream schools. Special educational provision is educational or training provision that is additional to, or different from, other children or young people of the same age by mainstream schools. We review the support children receive and the progress they make regularly by assessing pupils needs, putting plans in place, delivering support and then reviewing this support. This creates a review process we call our graduated approach.
