School Provision

Provision for students with SEND is of whole school importance. Central to the work of any class and curriculum area is a continuous cycle of planning, teaching, assessment and evaluation that accounts for the wider range of abilities, aptitudes and interests of the students. The majority of students will learn and progress within these arrangements. However, for some SEND students it may be necessary to provide an enhanced level of provision which supports and develops their learning abilities
