for adult life. We believe it is important for children to learn about the world in which
they live with an open and enquiring mind.
The school aims to portray people, regardless of their differences, in positive ways and to
foster close co-operation between parents, teachers, the wider community and the
school.
Special Educational Needs
Children with Special Needs Our SEND Co-ordinator is Miss K Crowley.
Red Hall Primary School is an inclusive mainstream school catering for children from the
age of 3 (Nursery) to 11 (Year 6). It welcomes children with and without SEND equally. It
supports children with a range of Special Educational Needs and disabilities, including:
o Communication and Interaction
o Cognition and Learning
o Social, emotional and mental health difficulties
o Sensory and/or physical needs
Red Hall Primary School actively works with parents, the local authority, as well as
specialist agencies from health, education and social care. This ensures that a support
plan is clearly in place.
We work closely with parents to provide for children with special needs. We believe that
all children should benefit equally from the education that the National Curriculum
provides. There are some children however, who need extra help to achieve the level of
work that their potential and ability deserves. We need to identify these children early to
allow this extra help to be provided. This additional support may take the form of
differentiation within the class or additional 1:1 or small group support. Outside
professional support agencies may be involved too.
If you feel your child needs special provision, please ask to see the SEN coordinator who
will be glad to discuss this with you. There is a Government code of practice, which the
school follows when helping children with special needs.
