Detailed description:
We are committed to providing a fully inclusive education which fully meets the needs of all our
children. In order to achieve this:
A rigorous tracking and target setting process is used to monitor every child's progress &
attainment each term, identify under-performing children and set specific programmes of support
to enable them to 'catch-up'.
Clear systems are in place to identify children with specific needs at both ends of the academic
spectrum to ensure additional support or challenge is provided where needed.
Children identified as having SEN have an individual plan which identifies specific targets to
support them in making progress in key aspects of their learning & development.
Enrichment programmes are offered to extend more able, gifted & talented children.
All lessons are clearly differentiated and all classes have a teacher and TA to support and
challenge individuals and groups. Rigorous assessment is used to inform the next steps for
learning.
An additional teacher is employed in Year 5 & 6 to enable teaching & learning to be better
matched to individual's needs.
An additional teacher supports the learning of EAL children.
