Each child is unique and has individual needs. They learn at different rates and reach milestones at different times and this process continues throughout lifelong learning.

In every class at school there will be children who may at some time during their school years have special educational needs (SEN) identified. These learning difficulties could be short or long term.

Schools work in partnership with parents to monitor their child’s development and, where there are concerns, take steps to help them to learn more effectively to maximise inclusion and opportunity for all children.
