Special Educational Needs

The Ofsted Report in March 2007 stated: “Good progress is made by students with a wide range of learning difficulties.”
 
The Support for Learning Faculty seeks to ensure that the school responds appropriately to Special Needs wherever they arise.  Some students need extra support in class while others need to be withdrawn for some of their work.  The school receives extra funding from the Local Authority for SEN and employs extra staff to encourage and assist achievement in these areas.
 
The school has additional resources for some statemented students (MLD and EBD).

Students attend assemblies on a regular basis and during tutor time there are opportunities for reflection on issues.  If any parent/carer requires further information, please contact the school.
