SEND/Inclusion

Our school is all inclusive and we work with many different agencies to support our children at Heath Primary School. Our SENDCo is Miss K Ward who can be contacted via info@heath.derbyshire.sch.uk

How will we support your child with identified SEND starting at our school in any year group?

• You will be invited you to visit the school with your child to have a look around and meet the Headteacher and class teacher.
• You will also be invited to an Induction Meeting in which details of your child’s needs are noted, and in which you can ask questions relating to the school.
• If other professionals or outside agencies are involved in supporting your child, a Multi-Agency Team (MAT) meeting may be held to discuss your child’s needs and to share strategies that are used.
• The SENDCo and class teacher may wish to liaise with the current setting your child attends if applicable.
• We may suggest adaptations to the transition period to help your child to settle more easily.
• The staff will closely monitor the progress the child makes and discuss this with you.

Please click on the SEND information report below for further advice and information on transition from year group to year group and from school to school. The report also provides information on how we identify children who need support, how parents are informed and involed and how we support children in school using expertise from outside agencies. Parents are also informed of the monitoring of progress and how we cater for pastoral needs.
