Special Educational Needs and Disabilities

SEND

We are a mainstream Primary and Nursery school which welcomes children with special educational needs and disabilities. We uphold an inclusive admissions policy which is built on a whole community approach to special needs where staff, governors, parents and support services work together as a team co-operating, collaborating, and co-ordinating in all that they do so that it produces the best possible education for all children.

 

All children at Woodland View Primary School feel equal and included in every aspect of school life. The views and feelings of every child are respected and valued by all adults and pupils. We have high expectations for all our children and make appropriate adaptations to meet their individual needs. We embrace the fact that every child is different, and, therefore, the educational needs of every child is different; this is certainly the case for children with Special Educational Needs.

Our SENDCo, Mrs. Rachael Stewart, can be contacted via our school.

When out of office, messages will be forwarded and responded to as soon as possible.

The Local Offer

The Local Offer brings together helpful and useful information for children and young people with SEND, from birth to 25 years, and their families. The information is contained within this website, which will enable you to search for services and provision within your own community and Nottinghamshire as a whole. This will cover public services that are available within: 

  • Education: e.g. nurseries, playgroups, schools and colleges as well as support services like educational psychologists, early years and early intervention workers. 
  • Health:  e.g. GPs, school nurses, therapists and mental health support. 
  • Social care: e.g. respite services and children’s disability services. 

It will also enable you to find out what support and services are available in the voluntary and private sectors, for example from charities and disability groups. 

As well as containing many records of different services, the Local Offer is a really useful source of information, advice and guidance. For example, on Education, Health and Care (EHC) Plans, support for special educational needs in schools and transitions.
