At Battyeford CE (VC) Primary School we are committed to the inclusion of all pupils. Every individual is valued and their achievement celebrated. We support the entitlement of all pupils to a broad and balanced curriculum. Each pupil is helped to achieve their maximum potential by identifying and meeting their needs and by overcoming potential barriers to learning.

Battyeford Primary School recognises as stated in the Special Education Needs and Disabilities Code of Practice (SEND) that:

A child or young person has SEND if they have a learning difficulty or disability which calls for special educational provision to be made for them.

A child of compulsory school age or a young person has a learning difficulty or disability if they:

• have a significantly greater difficulty in learning than the majority of others of the same age, or
• have a disability which prevents or hinders them from making use of facilities of a kind generally provided for others of the same age in mainstream schools or mainstream post-16 institutions.

Children and young people with SEND all have learning difficulties or disabilities that make it harder for them to learn than most children and young people of the same age. These children and young people may need extra or different help from that given to others.

Many children and young people will have Special Educational Needs and / or Disability at some time during their education. Battyeford Primary School is committed to working in collaboration with parents and carers to support the needs of their children.
