SEND
Welcome to our SEND (Special Educational Needs & Disabilites ) page.
This ‘Special Educational Needs Report’ has been created to support parents and carers so they can find out more about how our school supports their children with Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND).
The school SEND Coordinator (SENDCo) is Mrs Lund. The Governor responsible for SEND is Mrs Christine Bagan.
We hope that the information is clear and helpful, but should you need further information please contact the school with any questions on 01256 473777.
SEND Phone-Ins
Mrs Lund will be setting up regular SEND phone-in clinics with 20 minute bookable appointments for parents/carers to discuss their child’s support and seek advice. She will be working with parents to look at ways to refine our SEND provision and listen to views and thoughts.
