SEND

Provision for all our children begins with Quality First Teaching. For those children that may have been identified as requiring additional support we use the Assess, Plan, Do, Review process to ensure that all children have access to the support necessary to engage in a full curriculum and make good progress.

Class teachers take responsibility for the providing this additional support with the school day and with the support of the Special Educational Needs and Disabilities Coordinator (SENDCo) will monitor and review the progress made. Thus ensuring that where necessary and appropriate, changes made to the provision enables individuals to make the best progress they can.

For full information on the support we offer, please see our SEND Policy.

If you would like to make contact with the SENDCo, Jo Beard, please call the office on 01793 523802 or email senco@holyroodprimary.co.uk
