1 Legislative Compliance Special Education Needs and Disability Policy This policy complies with the statutory requirements established in the SEND Code of Practice 0-25 (2014) and has been written in accordance with the following guidance and documents: -Children and Families Act (2014) -Equality Act (2010, 2013) -Schools SEN Information Report Regulations (2014) -Statutory guidance on supporting pupils at school with medical conditions (2014) -Teachers Standards (2012) Vision At, we strive to provide students with a broad range of opportunities to help raise their aspirations, confidence and self-esteem. We identify students with special educational needs or disabilities as soon as possible to ensure the provision of targeted support. We recognise that SEN support works best when it is run well by those who can support and coordinate the work of other staff - and when all staff share a common philosophy, commitment and approach to improvement, and all bear a joint responsibility for making it happen. We seek to engender a sense of community for all our students, including those with special educational needs or disabilities, working with others in partnership to break down any barriers to participation, inclusion and belonging. Definitions of Special Educational Needs and Disability SEN is defined in the Children and Families Act 2014 (Part 3, Section 20) as: 1. A child or young person has special educational needs if he or she has a learning difficulty or disability which calls for special educational provision to be made for him or her. 2. A child of compulsory school age or a young person has a learning difficulty or disability if he or she (a) has a significantly greater difficulty in learning than the majority of others of the same age, or (b) has a disability which prevents or hinders him or her from making use of facilities of a kind generally provided for others of the same age in mainstream schools or mainstream post-16 institutions. A child or young person does not have a learning difficulty or disability solely because the language (or form of language) in which he or she is or will be taught is different from a language (or form of language) which is or has been spoken at home. Aims SEN/D provision at is in line with the aims of the government s SEN/D strategy ( ). s aims in relation to SEN/D are to: ensure that the needs of students with special educational needs are met, identify and assess formally and informally at an early stage, what and where the
2 needs are and how best they can be met, based on an inclusive curriculum model, act on admissions information relating to special educational needs, foster good practice and to ensure that students with special educational needs have access to a broad, balanced and relevant education (including the National Curriculum), allowing all students to reach their full potential and enhance their self-esteem, work in partnership with students, parents, external support services and agencies to ensure that students with special educational needs make good progress, raise staff awareness of and expertise with SEN/D through INSET for existing staff and induction for new staff, provide and maintain appropriate resources within a balanced and broadly-based curriculum in a way that supports children with SEN/D, ensure records relating to SEN/D follow the child through the school and are clear, accurate and up to date, ensure best value for SEN/D expenditure and to seek adequate external support and funding to meet the needs of pupils with special needs or disabilities. Objectives Students will learn in a stimulating and appropriate atmosphere in order to achieve their full potential. Work should stretch them and enrich their experiences in all lessons, Learning Support Department representatives will seek colleague support to formulate programmes of study and ensure that expertise and resources are shared through faculty and occasional interfaculty working groups, Staff will act in accordance with the SEN/D Code of Practice, in the sense that all teachers are teachers of students with special needs, Staff will monitor the progress of students regularly, Where appropriate, the School will avail itself of the expertise and assistance available from outside agencies, The views of the students and their families will be sought and taken into account, Partnership with parents/carers plays a key role in supporting their children s education and enabling them to achieve their potential so the school will endeavour to support parents/carers through the process of transition and adjustment, SEN/D students will be offered full access to a broad, balanced and relevant education, SEN/D students will have full access to all school activities so far as it is reasonably practical and appropriate to the student s needs,
3 There will be a well-planned structure at each transition stage for SEN/D identification and action. Identification of SEN In accordance with the SEN/D Code of Practice (2014) children and young people s SEN are thought of in the following broad areas of need and support: -Communication and interaction -Cognition and learning -Social, mental and emotional health -Sensory and/ or physical needs In accordance with the Equalities Act 2010, no pupil will be refused admission to school on the basis of his Special Educational Needs and the school will take all reasonable steps to provide effective educational provision. The school s aim is to identify pupils with special educational needs as soon as possible to engender the provision of targeted support. These needs should be identified through: the analysis of data, including entry profiles, classroom-based assessment and monitoring arrangements, following up parental concerns, tracking individual student s progress over time, liaison with primary schools and through information provided, information from other services or agencies such as the Educational Psychology service, involvement of external services when SEN is suspected as significant, establishment and review of targets in an individual provision map (IPM), identifying those receiving SEN support, using meetings between teachers and the SENDCO to inform this process. Assessment of Needs When a student is known to have a special educational need, the Head Teacher, SENDCO, departmental and pastoral colleagues should: Use information from the pupil s primary school to provide starting points for any necessary adaption to the curriculum for the student, Identify and focus attention on the student s skills and highlight areas for early action to support the student within the class, Ensure that ongoing observation and assessment provide regular feedback to all teachers and parents about the student s achievements and experiences, and that the outcomes of such assessment form the basis for planning the next steps in the student s learning, Involve the student in planning and agreeing and reviewing targets to meet his needs, Involve parents in developing and implementing a joint learning approach at home and in school, Hold meetings concerning student progress between the SENDCO and members of the SLT, Provide reports to parents/carers and governors.
4 Procedures Procedures in place may include: Liaison among the school s Registrar, SENDCO and Head of Lower School in the summer term about information of the special educational needs of the new intake of Year 7 pupils after contact with the primary schools, Form tutors and other members of staff are briefed by SENDCO at the start of the academic year, Students may also be identified by low academic attainment, school medical checks, and individual members of staff and/or students themselves, SENDCO meetings with the Head of Academic Progress to monitor students on the SEN/D Register, Regular discussions within the Pastoral Board about the progress of pupils on the SEN/D Register, Updates to the SEN/D Register in the Summer term, after examinations, feedback from subject heads, and pupil target reviews (in July), Keeping records of meetings by SENDCO and senior management, All departments identifying pupils who are experiencing difficulties in their subject; SENDCO collating this information at the start of the new academic year so that heads of departments and heads of year, with SENDCO, can identify and support those students needing help, Autumn term meeting of SENDCO and the Examinations Officer to discuss arrangements for students needing special arrangements for examination entries. Curriculum, teaching and SEND Support in Every teacher is required to adapt the curriculum to ensure access to learning for all children in their class (Teachers Standards 2011, Department for Education). At, teachers planning for lessons is based around prior attainment of individuals and groups within the class including individual pupils with SEN. Grouping arrangements are coordinated carefully to maximise learning opportunities. Additional adult support may be used to help groups or individuals in group tasks and with private study, aiming to facilitate inclusion and promote independence. We differentiate the curriculum to support students with special educational needs and, in exceptional circumstances, a lighter programme with fewer GCSE subjects may be employed. Information about each pupil with SEN is held on the SEN register. The SEN register is accessible to all staff and is updated regularly with personalised differentiation and guidance strategies provided. The register is amended by the SENDCO on an ongoing basis, after consultation with the pastoral team. We also keep a list of students of concern for pupils who do not meet the threshold for SEN support but who we feel may require enhanced monitoring and guidance. In accordance with the 2014 SEN Code of Practice, Pupils with SEN may have objectives set for them within lessons that are additional to or different from those normally provided as part of the differentiated curriculum. This may lead to teachers anticipating and encouraging different and personalised outcomes from learners working with the same lesson content. Some pupils may also meet regularly with a member of teaching staff to review academic progress and the findings from these meetings may be used to provide additional guidance to teaching staff to help the pupils in accessing the curriculum. Students will be offered SEND support when it is clear that their needs require intervention which is additional to or different from the well-differentiated curriculum offer for all students, in accordance with the definition of SEND in the SEN Code of Practice (2014). Under-achieving students and students with
5 EAL who do not have SEND will not be placed on the list of pupils being offered additional SEND support but will be monitored by Heads of Year and any concerns raised will be communicated to the SENDCO. SEN Support follows the Assess, Plan, Do, Review cycle recommended in the SEN/D Code of Practice 2014, using individual provision maps (IPM) to detail advice to staff and differentiation strategies to promote inclusion in all curriculum areas, extra-curricular activities and personal and social development. The SENDCO and the pupil s subject teachers should decide on the action needed to help the pupil to progress in the light of their earlier assessment. This might be:- to provide learning materials or special equipment, to provide some group or individual support - e.g. sixth form mentoring or further adult attention at specially-arranged sessions, to undertake staff development and training, aimed at introducing more effective strategies, to employ LA support staff for one-off occasional advice on strategies or equipment, or for staff training in order to provide effective intervention without the need for regular or ongoing input from external agencies, Education, Health and Care Plans On rare occasions, where a pupil has a significant, severe and sustained need, it may be necessary to enter an assessment process in order to consider the need for an Educational, Health and Care (EHC) plan. Pupils with a statement of special educational needs (pre September 2014) or an EHC plan (post September 2014) will have access to all arrangements for pupils on the SEND list and in addition, will have an Annual Review of their statement/plan. Medical Conditions The SEN/D register also records information about medical conditions that may affect a student and how he engages with his learning. For these students, information about the condition, treatment, likely impact on teaching and learning, medication, and health and safety factors are recorded and available to staff. An automatic risk assessment is produced for students in this category who are registered to go on school trips. Bullying The comprehensive school policy concerning bullying and harassment can be found on the school website. National evidence suggests that SEN students are more likely to experience bullying than their peers and so there are additional monitoring strategies in place. (See, Bullying Involving Children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities, Council for Disabled Children and Young Voice, in partnership with the Anti-Bullying Alliance, endorsed by Department for Children, Schools, Families) Transition Students joining our school who have special educational needs will have careful transition arrangements. These may be decided after consultation with the previous school, parents/carers, the pupil and key staff at our school. A transition meeting may be necessary, along with visits to the previous school and observations of the student in that setting.
6 Students moving between year groups and key stages will have support from the pastoral team in the school. Where a change of form tutor occurs, there is a continuation of support and the transfer of key information occurs in a meeting between the existing and the next tutor. The majority of students at our school go on to study for undergraduate degrees at higher education institutions such as universities. Support for students who are making this transition is available and information can be provided to the university to enable the continuation of support. SEN/D pupils and public exams Appropriate arrangements are made for those pupils with SEN/D requiring additional support in statutory tests. These may include an amanuensis, reader, offer of extra time, a word processor, enlarged papers and help with recording, in line with examination board regulations. INSET and Staff Development All new staff and trainee teachers are briefed fully on SEN policies, programmes and procedures, as part of their induction. The SENDCO is responsible for the delivery of an on-going programme of INSET. Discussions on concerns and strategies for SEND pupils are on the agenda for LSA fortnightly meetings. LSAs receive in house INSET on SEND yearly or LA experts deliver a programme of support when needed to address current issues. Complaints Our complaints procedure can be found on our website Governor Support The Board has appointed a governor who takes special responsibility for SEN/D issues. The governor and SENDCO meet regularly as part of the monitoring function of the Board.
