St. Margaret's CE Primary School is committed to offering an inclusive education to all students regardless of needs or abilities. The school seeks to raise achievement for all students and remove barriers to learning. All students with special educational needs and disabilities are valued equally.
The school appoints a Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCo) who is responsible for overseeing support for students with SEND. Teachers receive training to help them support students' diverse needs. The school works with parents and involves them in identifying needs and setting outcomes. It also works with outside agencies when additional support is needed.
There is a strong relationship between teachers, schools, families, and communities that supports student achievement and school improvement. Studies show that schools with active family involvement, like sharing learning materials at home, see larger gains in student achievement. Effective relationships include communication between home and school, school support for families, family and community help for schools, and collaborations with outside agencies. Building these relationships requires viewing students as individuals, addressing different needs as children age, and engaging the broader community to provide expanded learning opportunities and support for schools.
1) Stronsay Junior School Nursery aims to support all children's individual learning needs and provide additional support for children with additional support needs.
2) The nursery will work with parents and support staff like the Support for Learning teacher to identify children's needs and provide appropriate interventions and support.
3) Records of children's progress will be regularly updated and assessments will help identify any individual needs early in order to provide the best learning opportunities and support for each child.
