Education settings are expected to support children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).

This is done through a `graduated response`. This is a `stepped` approach of support to meet the needs of every child and young person as early as possible. The first 3 boxes on this page outline the graduated response. You can find more information here.

Each school has to publish a SEN information report which shows how they support children and young people with SEND. You can find the report on the schools website. We also have a link to the reports in each schools directory record on this website.

A special educational needs co-ordinator (SENCo/SENDCo) co-ordinates provision for children and young people who need extra support.

If you are worried about your child's progress, speak to their teacher or form tutor.
