SEN
Special Educational Needs
Welcome to the Special Educational Needs Faculty. The purpose of SEN in this school is to enable every child to achieve their full potential and be included in a normal school life. We work hard to make sure that every child has access to the curriculum and try to make the transition to adult life, or higher education, as painless and successful as possible.
We have two teams of dedicated staff who work with the children in the classroom and in withdrawal (small groups and individually). The two departments within the SEN Faculty are:
Learning Support
The Specialist Centre (Speech, Language and Communication Needs)
