Children with Special Educational Needs.
‘Queen Eleanor Primary School values the abilities and achievements
of all its pupils. We adopt an inclusive policy and are committed to
providing the best learning environment for each pupil, promoting
development in understanding and social maturity alongside peers
whenever possible.’ At Queen Eleanor our principles for children with
Special needs are:
- That children’s needs are identified;
- That each child’s progress is carefully monitored;
- IEP’s are regularly reviewed;
- That parents are kept fully informed of their child’s progress;
- That individual pupils are aware, and informed of their own
progress where possible through discussion and target setting;
- SENDIS and The Educational Psychologist Service will support
children who require more specialist advice.
Curriculum
- Children with Special Educational Needs will have full
access to the National Curriculum, which will offer a broad,
balanced and relevant curriculum;
- A range of teaching strategies are used in lessons to
support pupils including differentiation;
- Small group support is provided for literacy and numeracy
sessions in every class;
- Where appropriate, some children are withdrawn from the
classroom for small group or one to one work.
Children who are experiencing considerable learning
difficulties may need the extra support of a ‘Statement of
Special Needs’. This is carried out in consultation with
Parents, SENDIS, Educational Psychologist, other appropriate
agencies and the LEA. Resources
Resources for Special needs are always prioritised towards
the provision of adults to support children with special needs
in the classroom alongside the class teacher.
Specific resources to support children are bought as appropriate
and in consultation with relevant external agencies. Parents
Parents are welcomed in the school and their views are taken
into account. Regular meetings are held to discuss progress and
target setting. They are encouraged to be active participants in
their child’s education.
