Home Curriculum Special Educational Needs and Disabilities

The school’s policy is that all children’s needs should be met as far as possible in the classroom with appropriate levels of differentiation from the class teacher and additional support from experienced and qualified Teaching Assistants. The school actively promotes small classes across the age and ability ranges. In English and Maths we have especially small groups of no more than 15 with at least two adults for the children who learn more slowly than their peers. However, some children do require interventions when their attainment and/or progress is a concern. We have two designated areas for 1:1 and small group interventions (2-5 pupils).

The school uses a range of programmes in its interventions. These include Rapid Reading, Rapid Writing, Sound Training, Rapid Maths, Numicon and First Class in Number.
The school’s SEND policy can be found here.
