Introduction

Our SEN Information Report – which is part of Durham County Council’s Local Offer – provides details about how we support children and young people with Special Educational Needs in our school.

The SEN Information Report was reviewed and updated on  2nd October 2019 by Mr. Cooke (SENCO). It is updated annually with views of parents/carers taken into consideration. It is monitored and agreed by our governing body, through our SEND governor.

This document outlines the support available to learners at our school.  The overall objective of Walworth School is to eliminate unlawful discrimination and harassment, promote equality of opportunity and promote good relations and positive attitudes between people of diverse backgrounds in all our activities.
