How do we involve children with SEND in their own education?

All pupils are involved and encouraged to take part in their own learning journey, this includes:

• developing and achieving their individual targets
• attending parent’s evening with parents
• doing their homework to the best of their ability and handing it in on time
• asking for help when needed in lessons
• trying their best to be independent, responsible learners
• trying their best to organise themselves so they are ready to learn
• trying their best to listen carefully and focus in lessons
• trying their best to not get distracted in lessons
• taking part in self-assessment of their own learning
• listening to feedback and using the feedback to improve their work or attitude
• speaking to all members of staff if they have a concern or are worried about anything
• contributing ideas to the School Council and Junior Leadership Team
• taking part in extra-curricular activities

Children identified with SEND additional needs are also involved in developing and updating information for:

• EHC annual review meetings (Pupil Centred reviews)
• Support Plan review meetings
• One Page Pupil Profiles
• Individual Target Plans

The information for the above is gathered through:

• Discussions with class teachers, teaching assistants and SENCo
• Child view SEND questionnaires
• Good day / bad day questionnaires / analysis
• All about me booklets
• Child observations
