SEND Provision at St. Jerome's Catholic Primary School
At St. Jerome's Catholic Primary School we value every child's right to a broad and balanced education to enable them to achieve their full potential.
We follow the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) principles for supporting our SEND children. This involves:
Creating a positive and supportive environment for all pupils. We aim to remove barriers to learning and participation by providing an education that is appropriate to children's needs.
Building an ongoing, holistic understanding of our children and their needs. We use the graduated approach of 'assess, plan, do, review'. (See link below)
Ensuring all children have access to high quality teaching. This involves flexible grouping, cognitive and meta-cognitive strategies, explicit instruction and scaffolding.
Complementing high quality teaching with carefully selected small groups and one to one interventions. Interventions are carefully targeted through identification of assessment of need.
Working effectively with teaching assistants to ensure a positive impact on children with SEND
At St. Jerome's Catholic Primary School we recognise that effectively supporting children with SEND requires everyone working together. By fostering a culture that SEND is everyone's responsibility, we can ensure that the child is always at the centre of all decisions.
At St. Jerome's Catholic Primary School, our SENDCO is Mrs K Buckley. She can be contacted via the school office.
