Special Educational Needs (SENDs)
Our school/Trust SENDs Policy can be found on the school website on the 'Policies and Statements' page which can be found under the 'Information' tab at the top of the website homepage. Further information about ho the school supports children with SENDs can be found in our SENDs Information Report in the downloads at the bottom of this page.
The school's Special Educational Needs co-ordinator (SENDCo) is the headteacher, Mrs Broom. In addition to class teachers, Mrs Broom is available to meet with parents of children with SENDs to discuss their child's individual education plan and is responsible for making referrals to educational services, such as speech and language therapists, educational psychologists and the Early Help team for SENDs.
Westmorland and Furness SEND IAS Service (Information, Advice and Support Service) offers up to date information, impartial advice and practical support to parents/carers of children with special educational needs or severe medical conditions (disabilities), which affect the way their child can access education.
