At High Littleton Church of England Primary School, we strive to support all our children and enable them to reach their full potential at school. In order to do this, many steps are taken to support them through their learning journey. Quality teaching is vital; however, for some children there are occasions when further additional support may be needed to help them achieve their targets.

SENCO - Mrs Claire Richardson (senco@highlittletonschool.com)
The Children and Families Act 2014 became law in September 2014. The Act reforms the way special educational needs is managed in schools. A new Code of Practice provides statutory guidance to schools for the support of children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities.
This new Code of Practice is available to view or download on the Department for Education website. Useful summary documents are also available on a range of websites, outlining the reforms to special educational needs support and how any changes to statutory practice may affect your child.
The latest full draft SEN Code of Practice (January 2015) can be viewed at: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/398815/SEND_Code_of_Practice_January_2015.pdf
