SEN (Special Educational Needs)
New SEND Code of Practice came into effect 1st September 2014 and applies to Willows Nursery and Worlingworth CEVC Primary School.
Please click on the links below to find more information. You can find our SEND Policy here.
Our Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENDCO) is Victoria Gascoyne-Cecil and our SEND Governor is Amy Wills-Crisp.
Victoria Gascoyne-Cecil is contactable through the school office or via email: admin@worlingworth.suffolk.sch.uk.
If your child is unable to fully access the curriculum, then special arrangements can be put in place. All children with any sort of Special Need are monitored closely and have an individual Education Plan (IEP). These are updated at least once a term and parents are invited in to discuss progress and how pupils can be helped at home. The school runs a number of intervention programmes, mainly for Maths and English. Our Special Educational Needs Policy is available on our website. A recent analysis of progress of pupils on our intervention programmes showed good progress for our SEND pupils.
The school can meet the needs of all four categories of identified need:
- Communication and interaction
- Cognition and learning
- Social, emotional and mental health difficulties
- Sensory and/or physical need
Identification:
To find out more about how we identify SEN/D, please see our Information and Guidance Page.
Assess, Plan, Do, Review:
We operate under a system of 'Assess, Plan, Do, Review'- carefully assessing children's current strengths/needs/abilities, making a plan, carrying out the plan, monitoring children's progress through any interventions of adaptions before reviewing and repeating the cycle. Parents and carers are actively in volved in this cycle.
Equality & Equity
Worlingworth CEVC Primary School staff and Governors are committed to the promotion of equality and equity. This involves tackling the barriers which could lead to unequal outcomes so that there is equality of access and the diversity within the school community is celebrated and valued. It is our belief that equality at our school should permeate all aspects of school life and is the responsibility of every member of the school and wide community.
Please see the Equalities Policy for details of the provision and accessibility details.
