SEND Information

Gaddesby Primary School is a caring, supportive and responsive school which aims to meet the needs of all the children. It has as its goal the provision of an excellent all-round education, which identifies and develops the potential of each child. We aim to create a fun, exciting learning environment so all of the children may emerge as able, positive and caring members of society.

Every child has individual needs that may affect their learning. Sometimes children need special support to give them an extra boost—to help them catch up with peers, of the same age. They may need this support for a short time or a longer period, but during this time they will be part of our Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) Register and we will keep a close eye on their progress, looking carefully at what special support they need and keep in touch with you.

Please find all details related to the provision for SEND pupils in school below.
