SEND & Inclusion Statement for College Green School & Services

 

 

“Provision for children with SEND is exemplary. Staff are skilled at identifying children’s specific needs and interests early. They work with parents to put the necessary adaptations in place. This enables children to enjoy the same curriculum as their peers and join in with all aspects of school life. External expertise is used well to provide precise support when needed”

At College Green School & Services, we are committed to providing an inclusive and nurturing environment where every child is valued, respected, and supported to reach their full potential.

We believe that all children, regardless of their abilities or additional needs, have the right to a high-quality education that promotes their development, well-being, and sense of belonging.

Our Commitment to SEND and Inclusion:

 

  • Inclusive Learning Environment: We embrace diversity and strive to create a welcoming and supportive environment that meets the needs of all children, including those with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). We believe that inclusion is a whole-school responsibility, and we work collaboratively with families, professionals, and the community to ensure that every child feels safe, included, and valued. 
  • High Expectations for All: At College Green, we set high expectations for all our children, fostering a culture of ambition and resilience. We provide tailored support and individualised learning plans to ensure that each child has the opportunity to thrive and achieve their best possible outcomes.
  • Early Identification and Support: We are dedicated to the early identification of children with additional needs to provide timely and effective support. Our skilled team works closely with families and external professionals to develop personalised strategies and interventions that address each child’s unique learning needs and strengths.
  • Empowering Children and Families: We actively involve children and their families in decision-making processes about their learning and development. We listen to their voices, respect their perspectives, and ensure that their views influence the support and provision we offer. We believe that strong partnerships with families are key to achieving the best outcomes for our children.
  • Professional Development and Best Practice: Our team is committed to continuous professional development to stay informed about the latest research, best practices, and innovations in SEND and inclusion. We regularly review our approaches and strategies to ensure that we provide the highest quality support to our children with SEND.
  • Whole-School Approach: Inclusion is at the heart of everything we do at College Green. We promote a whole-school culture that celebrates diversity, encourages empathy, and builds positive relationships. We believe that fostering a sense of community and belonging is essential for the well-being and development of all our children.

The Local Offer

Local Authorities and schools are required to publish and keep under review information about services they expect to be available for the children and young people with Special Educational Needs and/or disabilities (SEND) aged 0-25. This is known as the ‘Local Offer’.

The intention of the Local Offer is to improve choice and transparency for families. It will also be an important resource for parents in understanding the range of services and provision in the local area.  Information is published as part of the SEND reforms under the Children and Families Act 2014.
