Special Needs Policy   The curriculum in our school is designed to provide equal access and opportunity for all children. We intend that all children with physical, academic, emotional and behavioural difficulties should be catered for. Pupils with SEN are integrated into all aspects of school life. Whenever we think it necessary to adapt the curriculum to meet the needs of individual children, then we do so only after the parents of the child have been consulted.   When a child has special needs, we try to meet these individual needs. We comply with the requirements set out in the SEN Code of Practice in providing for children with special needs. If a child displays signs of having special needs, his/her teacher makes an assessment of this need. In most instances the teacher is able to provide the resources and educational opportunities which meet the child's needs within normal classroom organisation. If a child's need is more severe, we consider the child for a statement of special needs, and we involve the appropriate external agencies when making this assessment. We provide additional resources and support for children with special needs wherever possible.   The school provides an Individual Education Plan (IEP) for each of the children on the special needs register. This sets out the nature of the special need, and outlines how the school will aim to address the need. It also sets out targets for improvement, as a means to review and monitor progress at regular intervals.   The trustees endorse this policy and ensure that it is regularly monitored and revised.
