We seek to be fully inclusive, striving to enable all pupils to achieve the best they can at school.

All pupils have access to a relevant and challenging curriculum, where teaching and learning approaches are adapted to the differing needs of pupils within each lesson.

Sometimes, some pupils need additional learning support. This may be provided in a variety of ways, including additional one-to-one or small group work with a teacher or teaching assistant. If pupils need some additional support to develop their social skills or to enhance their emotional well-being, this may be provided through additional small group sessions or individual pastoral support.

Teachers identify concerns through ongoing assessment and observation. Many pupils require some extra help at some point in their school life. This is readily provided and does not necessarily mean that the pupil has Special Educational Needs. However, if a pupil continues to have a high level of ongoing difficulty despite the additional provision outlined above, they may be considered to have Special Educational Needs (SEN).
