Our school belongs to a Community of Learning (CoL) which enables us to access a greater amount of support for our SEND pupils. We currently access additional speech and language support, psychology support and counselling support for our pupils. In CoLs, resources are pooled so that a wider range is available.
If you would like to discuss your SEND requirements in detail please contact the school to arrange an appointment.
