Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)

"Learning together as a community so that everyone gets what they need, making the most of every opportunity, and ensuring no moment is wasted."

At Milstead & Frinsted we have a fully inclusive ethos which is grown from our Christian faith this determines that all pupils will be able to access the curriculum at a level appropriate for their individual needs. We ensure that our children get 'quality first teaching', which ensures that when teachers plan, they are making sure that they have differentiated their plans to a level appropriate for all children in their class incorporating the different layers of learning. This enables all children to make strong progress for them.

We will support all pupils learning and ensure that our curriculum ensures equity for pupils who are neurodiverse leading to a full inclusive environment where all of our community thrives, making full use of externally provided facilities where appropriate. To ensure that our provision in school is closely matched to the needs of each child, we draw upon the guidance of the Special Educational Needs Mainstream Core Standards. A parent guide is also available. In addition, when necessary, the school can liaise with the Specialist Teacher Service.

If you think that your child may have an additional need, please make an appointment to see the interim-SENCO to discuss your concerns.
