SEND

Mrs Jackson our headteacher, is also our SENCO. She looks after the additional needs of all our pupils and supports the staff in their roles with these children. Mrs Jackson can be contacted on the school number: 01433 620630 or by email: headteacher@castleton.derbyshire.sch.uk

We strive to meet the individual needs of all children and take special care with children who have additional needs or who are struggling with their learning. We fully comply with the Special Educational Needs Code of Practice.

We aim to:

• Make sure that a child with SEND receives the support they need to achieve at the best level possible.
• Ensure that pupils with SEND are fully included in the life of the school, making reasonable adjustments where necessary.
• Inform parents when we are making special educational provision for a child.
• Have high expectations of children with SEND.
• Ensure pupils are supported in school and facilitate help from outside agencies and professionals.
