Saint Nathaniel's Academy

SEN Information Report 

 

Saint Nathaniel's is a mainstream academy with an inclusive ethos.

 

We believe that:

• Every child is entitled to experience success.

• Every child is entitled to have his or her particular needs recognised and addressed.

• Every child is entitled to the greatest possible access to a broad and balanced curriculum, including the National Curriculum.

• Every child, where appropriate, should be taught together with their peers, for as much time as possible.

• There is flexibility to provide special provision in relation to the individual needs of the child.

• It is the responsibility of all teachers to identify and meet the SEN of children.

• The SEN budget should be targeted to meet the needs of those children identified on the SEN register.

• Special education provision is more effective if children and parents are fully involved.

​
