At Phoenix Primary School, we strive to support all children to enable them to achieve at school. The school aims to be fully inclusive and currently supports pupils with a wide range of additional needs.

​

In order to do this, many steps are taken to support them through their learning journey.

​

High quality teaching is vital.  However, for some children there are occasions when further measures/additional support may be needed to help them achieve their targets and feel ready to learn and participate fully in school life.

​

Our Inclusion team work with pupils, parents and teachers to ensure that pupils with Special Education Needs have full access to the curriculum and succeed in accordance with the SEND Code of Practice 0 – 25 years, DfE (January 2015).

We liaise, where necessary, with outside expert agencies to assist in diagnosing any learning difficulties and in suggesting strategies to support our pupils and staff. We encourage our pupils to be resilient and to begin to take responsibility for their own learning and foster a positive, supportive relationship between home and school to enable every Phoenix pupil to achieve their best.

​

Information advice and guidance is always available through our FLO (Family Liaison Officer) who works very closely with those pupils who are struggling with their own personal well-being and offer support to families who may have concerns, issues or worries that are impacting on their ability to parent effectively. They aim to empower parents to take an active role in their child’s social, emotional and educational development.

All information related to SEND can be found in the our SEND Procedures and Local Offer in our policies and procedures section.

​

Should you have any queries or concerns that your child may have a SEND need or wish to discuss the current provision the school can offer, please contact the appropriate member on the Inclusion team as soon as possible in order that the correct investigations and support can be put in place.
