Special Educational Needs and Disabilities

How we support our SEND pupils

Some of our pupils may need a little extra help and this is where our Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) support comes in.  Each child with additional needs is offered different support tailored to meet their needs.  Staff at our school work closely with our children, their parents and, where appropriate, outside agencies, to develop each child’s support.

Our SENCO (Special Educational Needs Coordinator) is Mrs Helen Pye.  If you have any questions or concerns please contact Mrs Pye via the school office on 01347 810230 or via email on headteacher@sutton-on-the-forest.n-yorks.sch.uk. Our governor for SEND, Jess Porter, can also be contacted through the school office (01347 810 230). We are always happy to help.

Our SEND Information Report outlines how we identify and monitor progress of our children with additional needs.  Our Whole School Provision Map gives an overview of the types of support we currently have in place at school to meet the needs of our children.  These documents, along with our other SEND – related policies are available below.  If you require any of these as hard copies, please contact the school office.
