Special needs information report

The governing board of every maintained school has a statutory duty to publish information about the implementation of the school’s policy for pupils with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). This information is reviewed and updated annually in accordance with the Special Educational Needs and Disability Regulations (2014) and the SEND Code of Practice: 0 to 25 years.

At Someries Infant School and Early Childhood Education Centre, we are committed to working in partnership with pupils, parents and carers, staff, governors and external agencies to ensure that every child is supported to achieve their full potential. Our SEN Information Report has been developed in consultation with members of our school community and explains how we identify, assess and meet the needs of pupils with SEND, as well as the arrangements we have in place to support their inclusion, progress and wellbeing.

SEND Reform

The Government is currently progressing a programme of reforms to the special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) system. As further details are published and any legislative or statutory changes come into effect, we will review and update this SEND Information Report to ensure that it continues to reflect current national requirements and our arrangements for supporting pupils with SEND.

At present, this SEND Information Report outlines the information and procedures that are currently in place at Someries Infant School and Early Childhood Education Centre, based on the guidance and statutory requirements available at the time of publication. We remain committed to keeping parents, carers and other stakeholders informed as national policy develops and further information becomes available.
