SEND
Our SENDCO is Mr Dan Beavers. Miss Ames is a Specialist Support Base teacher and Miss Potter is our SEND HLTA.
During your child’s time here at Newsham, they will encounter high quality teaching and learning in all subjects.
Some children have special educational needs because of a difficulty or disability. For them, learning may be more challenging than would typically be expected, although this may not necessarily last for the whole of their time in school.
If you have concerns about your child’s learning and progress at Newsham please talk to their class teacher or our SENDCO so that we can put appropriate provision in place.
If SEN is identified, staff at Newsham will take a ‘graduated approach’ to improving learning and progress, involving regular assessment and evaluation.
We also have two specialist support bases, Sea Otters, taught by Miss Ames, and Sandpipers, taught by Mr Beavers. Places for these classes are allocated via the Local Authority or via our SENDCO.
