We have a room in which our learning mentor works and a small withdrawal SEN room. 3 of our 14 classrooms are upstairs with no lift access.

Our school vision is to create a community where we are Motivated to Learn; Proud of our Achievements; Successful and Skilled for Life. We fully recognise that all children will learn at their own pace yet we aim to encourage and challenge all of our children to achieve their full potential. We believe that developing self-esteem is crucial to a child’s well being and we have a caring, understanding team looking after our children.
When providing for children with SEND there are four areas of need;
- Cognition and Learning
- Communication and Interaction
- Sensory and/or Physical Needs
- Social, Emotional and Mental Health difficulties
A child with SEND may have needs that fall into one or more of the above categories.
When providing for children with SEND, the class teacher has the overall responsibility for the pastoral and social care; and academic progress; of every child in their class. If additional support is required the class teacher liaises with the school’s Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator (SENCO). Additional support may also include working in partnership with outside agencies such as Educational Psychology; Behaviour Support; Community Paediatricians; Speech and Language Therapists; and Social Care.
