Key Information ListSEND
The Learning Support department focuses on the identification and support of students who have learning needs of all sorts, from difficulties with learning and cognition, through to medical issues.
The team is led by our Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator (SENDCO) Miss Cloete. We have a Higher Level Teaching Assistant (HLTA), as well as a team of Learning Support Assistants who support students in a variety of lessons, with a focus on those with an Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP).
A small number of students have individual or small group tuition but most support takes place in the classroom, helping students to complete the work set for their class.
The SENDCO is always happy to meet with you to discuss your child's needs in order to support them fully during their time with us.
