What we do to support children with Special Educational Needs:
We recognise the importance of early intervention to identify Special Educational Needs (SEN) and we monitor all pupils closely using both data and classroom observations. We have strong and supportive links with outside professionals including Speech Therapists and Educational Psychologists.
We aim to provide quality provision to support and include children within the classroom. Where concerns have been raised, and needs subsequently identified, a programme of targeted intervention and classroom strategies are put in place to support the child. This support may be provided in a small group or on a one-to-one basis, and it may involve the use of external agencies.
Once a child has been placed on the SEN register, an Individual Learning Plan will be drawn up, along with a one page profile and intervention timetable to show strategies and resources that will enable them to access the curriculum.
Children will not always need support for their time at The Laurels and this is monitored and adjusted on a regular basis.
