Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND)
Calderstones School aims to provide meaningful and effective learning support for all pupils with Special Educational Needs.
We follow a graduated approach to SEN support, providing inclusive classroom environments to ensure that pupils make the best possible progress.
We aim to create a safe, caring and supportive setting for pupils to develop into young adults who are well-prepared for when they move on to their next phase of education, employment or training.
SEN Policy Aims & Objectives
- To create an inclusive environment that meets the special educational needs of each child
- To adopt a whole school approach to SEND support where SEND pupils are fully integrated into mainstream classes

- To make clear the expectations of all partners in the process:
