Special Educational Needs and Disabilities at St John's Church Of England Infant School
At our school, we believe that every child is unique. We value individuality and we are committed to providing opportunities for all children to achieve their best. We promote children’s strengths and challenge every child accordingly. We also aim to identify needs early in their educational career and provide appropriate support. At all times, we aim to remove barriers to learning and thus ensure equality of opportunity for all. Throughout each child’s time with us, we value the involvement of the child, the family and the team working around the child at all times.
AREAS OF SEND PROVIDED FOR IN THE SCHOOL:
The Children & Families Act (2014) sets out new requirements to be implemented for supporting children and young people/adults with Special Education Needs & Disabilities. We work in partnership with external agencies and the appropriate local authority services to ensure that all children, including those with SEND, make the best possible progress. The school can provide for children with the following SEND:
- Communication and interaction
- Cognition and learning
- Physical and sensory
- Social, emotional and mental health needs
November 2022- Ofsted and the CQC are publishing our report on the area SEND consultation and our new area SEND inspection framework, which will take effect from early 2023.
