Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND)
Little Horsted is dedicated to being an Inclusive School with the aim of ensuring that all children achieve their full potential. Some children have special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEN/D) and the School is committed in providing appropriate support for all children to ensure that they make good progress.
We are committed to:
- Catering for every pupil’s learning needs
- Providing a fully inclusive community of which every pupil is an important part
- Celebrating diversity and differences
- Building our pupils’ self-esteem and recognising their achievements at every level
- Working closely together with parents of pupils with SEN/D
- Identifying SEN/D early and putting appropriate support in place
- Training our staff so that they can help children learn in the way that suits them best.
For any questions or concerns related to SEN/D please contact the Acting SENCO- Mrs White.
