Special Educational Needs
At Warboys Community Primary School we endeavour to meet the educational needs of all our pupils. We do this by identifying and breaking down possible barriers to learning. The views of both the pupil and the pupil's parents should be sought. Parents play a vital role in supporting their child's education. Pupil participation is encouraged to ensure
needs are monitored.
Children with special educational needs are offered full access to a broad, balanced and relevant education, differentiated to suit individuals needs, including an appropriate curriculum for the foundation stage and the National Curriculum. Following guidance from the Code of Practice, pupils with SEN shall be identified as pupils who need interventions that are additional to or different from those provided as part of the school's usual differentiated curriculum.
ADMISSIONS AND INCLUSION
The current agreed admissions policy of the governors makes no distinction as to pupils with special educational needs. Within the admissions policy, the aim of the school is to meet the needs of the child of any parent who wishes to register at the school. Entry to the school may need to be planned in including staggered entry or part-time entry to
meet the needs of the pupils. In the case of pupils with a statement of special educational, the SENCO will work closely with the LA named officer in coming to a decision about the most appropriate provision for the pupil. The County admission criteria states that pupils with a statement and medical needs when supported by the Student Assessment Service will take priority. No pupil can be refused admission solely on the grounds that he/she has special educational needs.
ALLOCATION OF RESOURCES
The Head teacher and Governors will allocate funds to meet the needs of pupils with SEN. The Head teacher will manage these funds paying due regard to the views of teaching staff and the SENCO. The governors will monitor the success of the policy.
Currently (September 2007) the school does not have a sepcial needs leader and this role will be undertaken by the Headteacher and other senior staff until one is appointed.
