Every learner, properly supported
What we work on
Message from the Head
Inclusion is not a policy statement; it is a timetable, a seating plan, a referral that goes to the right person in the right week. Our teaching and our research both start from the ordinary machinery of a school, because that is where a pupil with additional needs is either supported or is not.
We prepare teachers, SEN co-ordinators and school counsellors, and we work alongside mainstream and special schools on whole-school inclusion and guidance.
