Special Educational Needs
If you have any questions about special educational needs or disabilities, please contact our Assistant Headteacher for inclusion, Mrs Cooper.
All schools within the Berlesduna Trust have a similar approach to meeting the needs of pupils with Special Educational Needs and are supported by the Local Authority to ensure that all pupils, regardless of their specific needs, make the best possible progress in school. All schools are supported to be as inclusive as possible, with the needs of pupils with a Special Educational Need/s and or disabilities being met in a mainstream setting wherever possible, where families want this to happen.
The SEN Code of Practice (January 2015) sets out in Chapter 6.15 that:-
'A pupil has SEN where their learning difficulty or disability calls for special educational provision, namely provision different from or additional to that normally available to pupils of the same age.'
Fairhouse Primary is a fully inclusive school.
Here are some links to support that may help parents with children who have special educational needs.
