SEND

General SEN_edited.jpg

​St Paul’s Church of England Primary School is a place where children and adults from diverse backgrounds live and learn harmoniously together. We are passionate about a curriculum that allows us to grow as unique individuals as we build each other up to live life abundantly. Driven by the vision that all children will learn to love and love to learn, we work tirelessly to meet every child’s individual needs and celebrate their individual successes.

We strongly believe in the importance of inclusion for ALL pupils. This belief is at the heart of our SEND practice and drives our ambition to ensure ALL pupils reach their full potential. Everyone at St Paul’s has the right to learn and achieve in a safe, caring environment where meeting ALL needs is a shared responsibility.

We are committed to a whole-school approach towards providing an inclusive curriculum. Therefore, we ensure that our staff are trained with the knowledge and skills required to effectively support all pupils. 

For pupils requiring additional support, small group interventions are led by experienced staff; these interventions are closely monitored and their impact is evaluated regularly. Where pupils require more personalised provision, we draw on specialist knowledge in order to tailor their learning experiences so that they are given every opportunity to progress and succeed.

In addition to our class teachers and Teaching Assistants, we also have a specific Inclusion team. This team consists of the Headteacher (Mrs Ferretti), SENCO (Mrs Evans), Assistant SENCo (Mrs Mann), SALT Teaching Assistant, SEND TAs and Pastoral Assistants. This team work in collaboration to support children effectively across the 4 areas of need.

 

We also work closely with external agencies and professionals such as the Wolverhampton Outreach Service, NHS Speech and Language, Occupational Therapy, Educational Psychologist and the Specialist Teacher team.

'Having supported St Paul's to develop their SEND provision for many years, I'd like to say how impressed I am by their enthusiasm and unwavering dedication towards meeting the needs of their SEND community. Staff are patient and caring, displaying an eagerness to learn with frequent training sessions embedded within their professional development. The improvements implemented by Jenny and her team mean more children with significant needs can successfully remain in mainstream education.' A Moran - Outreach

'* has made progress since arriving at St Paul's C of E Primary School; attributed to the positive nurturing relationships she has formed and the highly individualised support she has received since this time'.
