Special Education Needs
Welcome to our SEND page, full of information about our offer for students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities.
We have a dedicated team of Teaching Assistants who work with our students to help them enjoy learning and succeed in their studies.
Whilst no two students are the same, our support often involves:
- helping teachers to offer their students a choice of tasks (so that lessons are suitable for the range of abilities in their class)
- providing in-class support to students
- individual or group interventions to support students with a specific topic
For each student with Special Educational Needs or Disabilities, we pair them with a key staff member who can act as the main link for that student and their parents/carers. We listen to the student’s and parent’s wishes when planning support.
