St Martin's Cof E Primary is a fully inclusive school. We work hard to meet the needs of all of our pupils. The following documents will give you more information in relation to SEND and how school and home can support children.

 

If you have any concerns or wish to discuss SEND at our school, please do not hesitate to contact Miss Hunt via the school main office. 

What to do if you are concerned your child has SEND?

The Children and Families Act 2014  says that a child or young person has special educational needs (SEN) if he or she has a learning difficulty or disability which calls for special educational provision to be made for him or her.

A child or young person with SEN may find it harder to learn than other children of the same age. Special educational needs may include:

• Behavioural or social, for example difficulty making friends or self regulating
• difficulties learning or retaining information
• Concentrating, for example attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
• A medical condition which affects learning
• A sensory or physical need which affects them in school, for example being blind or deaf

If you think your child has SEND that requires extra support, then contact the class teacher in the first instance. Here at St Martin's we are committed to ensuring every child fulfils their true potential and staff will look at things that can be done to support you or your child.
