Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)
At Monkston, we are committed to ensuring that all pupils have access to a broad and balanced curriculum, and that all pupils are immersed in the life of the school.
Our rigorous monitoring of pupils' progress ensures that any child with a special educational need or disability (SEND) is quickly identified and support is adapted to a child's individual needs. We maintain a robust system for planning provision, implementing support and reviewing impact.
Relationships with pupils with SEND and their families is at the heart of our approach - all our pupils are known as individuals.
Monkston Primary School emphasis and takes great pride in its quality first teaching approach. Teachers adapt, scaffold and differentiate pupils' work to ensure that they all achieve; there are no ceilings to a child's potential at Monkston.
Monkston maintains a register of children with Special Educational Needs, which helps to ensure children receive the appropriate level of support. Parents will be informed if their child needs to go on to the register and will be supported in one of four ways:
Quality First Teaching
Individual Education Plan (IEP)
SEN Support Plan
Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP)
