SEND
Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND)
Acting SENCO: Ms Jones
The school's policy regarding SEND is based on the principles of inclusion, fairness and equal access for all pupils. Thus every child, whatever their special need, may develop their full potential in all areas of the Curriculum. Pupils with special educational needs will be included and supported to this end.
Mrs Cooper is our Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO) and her role is to support pupils identified with extra learning needs. Below is a Parent Leaflet which offers more information about SEND and the role of the SENCO.

The Local Authority Local Offer
From September 2014 Local Authorities are required to publish a ‘Local offer’. This offer tells you what the Local Authority can offer children with special educational needs and disabilities. Access to the local offer is designed to support parents of children with special educational needs in making decisions about the school they choose for their children.
Birmingham Local Authority’s Local Offer for Special Educational Needs
The SEND Local Offer website includes information, advice, support and resources for SEND families, professionals, children, young people and schools in Birmingham.
They have produced a 2 minute video as part of the work to promote the website more widely; it shows what is on offer in Birmingham for SEND families.
