At Blaise Primary & Nursery School we value each child as an individual and a child with special educational needs is no exception; he or she should have their needs met so that they can thrive.

New regulations for special Educational Needs and Disability came into effect from September 2014. This now means that where appropriate, the views of the child will be sought and taken into account; with parents having a vital role to play in supporting their child’s education.

Children with special educational needs should be offered full access to a broad, balanced and relevant education, including an appropriate curriculum for the foundation stage and National Curriculum.

Where a child’s needs cannot be met solely by the class teacher, Mrs Robinson (SEND Co) or Miss Thorn (Deputy SEN Co) will be approached and advice from outside agencies may be sought. If appropriate, the child will be added to the school’s SEND Register and will be classed as “SEN Support.” A programme of support and tailored activities will then be made available to that child.

We also have a break and lunchtime club available  for children who find playtimes overwhelming. 

Mrs Robinson and Miss Thorn can be contacted via the School Office.

Any parents who are concerned about their child’s progress should make an appointment to see their child’s class teacher in the first instance.
