We believe that every child matters and that the fundamental purpose of education is to prepare students to lead fulfilled, productive, responsible, happy and successful adult lives.
Our vision for children and young people with special educational needs and disability (SEND) is the same as for all children. We strive to ensure access for all to educational excellence in preparing children and young people for their futures, seeking to continually improve attainment and progress for all and secure the highest levels of achievement appropriate to the individual learner.
The Government provides some advice for parents and carers about Special Educational Needs and Disabilities which you can access here https://www.gov.uk/children-with-special-educational-needs

We are committed to ensuring that pupils with medical conditions are fully supported in school so that they can:
If a student has a medical need, they will have a Care Plan, which is compiled in consultation with parents and one of our medical assistants. The plan is discussed with all staff who are involved with the student and is added to the student’s profile, so staff can access it.
Staff receive regular medical training delivered by the school medical assistant and are aware of where they can access further information as required.
Where necessary and in agreement with parents, medicines are administered in school but only with signed parental consent and with medicines in the original packaging.
We work towards the following principles:
-To ensure SEND is a whole school responsibility requiring a while school response
-To identify, as early and accurately as possible, any pupils with additional needs and make appropriate provision in accordance with the SEND Code of Practice
-To ensure all pupils receive a broad, balanced and relevant curriculum
-To build partnerships between home and school and ensure children and their parents are treated with respect and have their views taken into account
-To liaise with other members of staff and appropriate outside agencies in order to meet pupils needs effectively
-To provide quality support and advice for all staff working with pupils with SEND
-To ensure that children with SEND are admitted into the school in accordance with the whole school admissions policy
