SEND

1. What school leaders and governors do to make sure that all children feel welcome, feel included and achieve their potential

Our Director of Inclusion has overall responsibility for SEND and inclusion – this means that we regularly discuss SEND issues in the Leadership Team meetings. We keep support for children with SEND under constant review.

Our SENDCo manages the day to day provision. She plans the programmes of support for individuals and small groups of pupils with SEND

She keeps a list/profile of children we identify as having a SEN and/or a disability.

She also keeps a record on the Brecknock Primary School Provision Map of all the different ways that we provide extra support (for example, support for reading, communication and number) for children with SEN/D

We carefully monitor the progress and well-being of children with SEND and the quality of our provision, including teaching and support. For example senior leaders and SENDCo observe lessons and hold discussions with teachers and support staff as well as monitor SEN provision through learning walks, consultations with staff and tracking of interventions. If something is not working well, we change and improve our provision.

The Governing Body challenges us to make sure we constantly review progress of all groups including SEND and improve the quality of provision for children with SEND and the outcomes that they achieve.

We have several parents on the governing body and one of their roles is to represent the views and concerns of all parents, including those with children with SEN/D

We have a Governor who takes a particular responsibility for SEND matters. She meets with our SENDCo at least once a term to ensure the governing body are able to be clear on all matters pertaining to SEND. She reports termly to the pastoral care and curriculum committee of the governing body.

We fully involve our Governors when we review and revise our SEND policy and our SEND Information Report at the end of each school year.
