The right support
for
your
child
We are an inclusive school committed to giving all our pupils every opportunity to achieve the highest of standards.
We provide education for all pupils through a variety of access strategies and the provision of resources and facilities as necessary.
All pupils' needs are considered and a range of flexible responses are available to accommodate and value their diversity.
When necessary we support learning through appropriate external specialists, tailored to individual need.
Our Staffing expertise
Our SENDCO is Helen Bansback. She is responsible for coordinating provision for children with additional needs, for developing, implementing and monitoring the school's Inclusion and SEND Policy and facilitating specialist staff training, and for ensuring that parents are involved in and informed about their child's learning and support. Helen can be contacted via the school office.
We also have staff in school with specialised SEND expertise and qualifications, including dyslexia teacher training, reading therapy, talking and drawing therapy.
Working with other agencies
Our policy is to work actively to support cooperation between local authorities and health services, to ensure education, health and care services for children with special educational needs and disabilities are jointly planned and commissioned.
Further information about support and services for pupils and their families can be found opposite.The Southwark Autism Support Team (AST) is a great source of support and guidance for schools and parents. Their specialist teachers can offer help and advice in school on request and there are regular coffee mornings for parents and carers. On their website, you will find details of upcoming coffee mornings, courses and free resources to use at home.
