Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)
Key Contacts
- SENDCO: Mrs Shanice Lee
Trust Statement of Intent
Schools are required under the Equality Act 2010 to have a accessibility plan. The purpose of the plan is to:
- Increase the extent to which disabled pupils can participate in the curriculum
- Improve the physical environment of the school to enable disabled pupils to take better advantage of education, benefits, facilities and services provided
- Improve the availability of accessible information to disabled pupils
Our Schools Aims
Our school aims to treat all its pupils fairly and with respect. This involves providing access and opportunities for all pupils without discrimination of any kind.
The Trust as a Multi Academy Trust ensures that each of its academies are inclusive academies which focus upon the well-being and progress of every child and where all members of our community are of equal worth.
We believe that the Equality Act provides a framework to support our commitment to valuing diversity, tackling discrimination, promoting equality and fostering good relationships between people. It also ensures that we continue to tackle issues of disadvantage and underachievement of different groups. We recognise that these duties reflect international human rights standards as expressed in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, the UN Convention on the Rights of People with Disabilities, and the Human Rights Act 1998.
Objectives
Our school is committed to ensuring staff are trained in equality issues with reference to the Equality Act 2010, including understanding disability issues. The school supports any available partnerships to develop and implement the plan.
Implementation Guidance
This action plan sets out the aims of our accessibility plan in accordance with the Equality Act 2010. See Below in addition to the Trust SEND Policy.
