Access to the Curriculum
Access to the Curriculum
Although we endeavour to consider the needs of a range of disabled children it is likely that children with learning disabilities will have the greatest barriers to access and the majority of such will have access provided through the statement of SEN. In our delivery of the National Curriculum we ensure that suitable learning challenges are set, we respond to pupil’s diverse learning needs and we overcome potential barriers to learning and assessment.

Access to the Physical Environment
The school will take account of the needs of pupils and visitors with physical difficulties and sensory impairments when planning and undertaking future improvements and refurbishments of the site and premises, such as improved access, lighting, acoustic treatment and colour schemes, and more accessible facilities and fittings.

Access to Written Information
Information will be made available within a reasonable time frame and take account of the pupils’ disabilities and pupils and parents preferred formats. The school will make itself aware of local services, including those provided through the LEA, for providing information in alternative formats when required or requested.

FLO
The school employs a Family Liaison Officer (FLO) who is able to offer other avenues of access to pupils and parents including practical help with completing forms, liaising with external agencies and responding to the changing needs of family life.
