Special Educational Needs & Disabilities Provision

Special Educational Needs & Disabilities Provision

Our Inclusion Leader is Miss. Johnston.

All staff at Darley Dene understand that they are teachers of children with SEND and are committed to equality of opportunity and access to all areas of school life. We aim to promote inclusion by ensuring all lessons are accessible to all children taking into account physical and sensory needs, language needs, social and emotional needs and any information about prior attainment. On allocation of a place in our school, the needs of a child with disabilities will be carefully assessed and advice taken as to how we can best fulfil our commitment to inclusion. 

At Darley Dene, we pay attention to the 4 principles of Inclusion:

• We welcome children of every race, gender, physical need or learning ability
• We set suitable learning challenges
• We respond to pupils' diverse learning needs
• We aim to overcome potential barriers to learning
   

Within this section of the website, practical information can be found to aid parents in supporting children with an additional need, both in school and out. This includes links to useful websites, resources and local events taking place within the community.

More information about our SEND provision can also be found in the School Policies section.
