SEND
Our special educational needs co-ordinator (SENDCO) is Mrs McAllister.
Our Mission
At our school, we are committed to creating a safe, inspiring, and inclusive environment where every child is valued and supported. We believe that all children, including those with special educational needs and disabilities, should have equal opportunities to thrive and fulfil their potential. Through high-quality teaching, tailored support, and a culture of respect and understanding, we aim to remove barriers to learning and empower every child to achieve success academically, socially, and emotionally.
We celebrate our achievements, gifts and cultural diversity, irrespective of individual differences within the protected categories of the Equality Act of 2010. Together we take pride in making a positive contribution to our school and the wider community.
