Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND)

St John the Baptist Catholic Primary is a mainstream primary school where the staff truly believe that all children have an entitlement to personal, social, intellectual and spiritual development and must be given the opportunity to achieve their potential in learning. 

Each child at St John the Baptist is unique in terms of characteristics, interests, abilities, motivation and learning needs and should be treated equally.  Those with additional learning needs and/or disabilities should have access to high quality and appropriate education.  We do recognise however that some children will require extra support to enable them to do this. 

We believe for a child to succeed, we need to work closely with parents, to help support them and their child during their time at St John’s.

Accessibility Policy and Plan 

Where parents have concerns about our school’s SEND provision, they should first raise them informally with the class teacher, SENCO, or Headteacher. We will try to resolve the complaint informally in the first instance. If this does not resolve their concerns, parents are welcome to submit a formal complaint. They will be handled in line with the school’s complaints policy.
