SEN (Special Educational Needs)

All staff share the responsibility for the education of all our pupils. The Learning Support Department works with subject areas to provide additional help for pupils, particularly those with learning needs. The identification of pupils with special learning needs and assessment of their learning requirements takes place upon their entry to Baysgarth. The process begins during meetings with our partner primary schools and initial discussions with parents. As much as possible, pupils with special learning needs are taught within class groups, although small group work and individual tuition will be used where appropriate. When necessary, we work closely with other North Lincolnshire services to support pupils with special learning needs.

Policy

Baysgarth's policy on SEN issues reflects and upholds government legislature at national level and also LEA guidelines for pupils who have a special educational need. There have been no significant changes to the policy during the year.
