Special Educational Needs
At Haddenham St Mary’s CE School we believe that each child is individual and unique.
The aim of our school is to enable all children to reach their full potential, building on their different
strengths, abilities, interests and needs. We acknowledge that a significant proportion of pupils will
have special educational needs at some time during their school career. Many may require additional support throughout their time in school, whilst others may need a little extra support for a short period to help overcome more temporary needs.
Our supportive environment aims to:
enable every pupil to experience success
promote individual confidence and a positive attitude
ensure that all pupils, whatever their special educational needs, receive appropriate
educational provision through a broad and balanced curriculum that is relevant and
differentiated, and that demonstrates coherence and progression in learning
give pupils with SEND equal opportunities to take part in all aspects of the school’s
provision, as far as is appropriate
identify, assess, record, and regularly review pupils’ progress and needs
involve parents/carers in planning and supporting at all stages of their pupil’s development
work collaboratively with parents, other professionals and support services
ensure that the responsibility held by all staff and governors for SEND is implemented and
maintained.
