We are committed to providing an accessible and inclusive environment where all pupils, staff, parents/carers and visitors feel valued, supported and able to participate fully in school life. We recognise and respect the diverse educational, physical, sensory, social, emotional and spiritual needs of our school community.

We are committed to promoting equality of opportunity, challenging discrimination and fostering a culture of awareness, respect and inclusion throughout the school.

Supporting Accessibility and Inclusion

We have an Accessibility Plan in place and, where possible, make reasonable adjustments to improve access to the school environment, curriculum and wider school activities in order to meet individual needs. Our policies and practices are in line with the Equality Act 2010. Please refer to our Accessibility Plan and Accessibility Policy for further information.

Our Accessibility Plan helps to ensure that pupils, staff, parents/carers and visitors with disabilities are able to access school buildings, facilities and learning opportunities as fully as possible.

When a pupil joins the school with an identified special educational need or disability (SEND), we work closely with families, staff and relevant professionals to ensure appropriate support and reasonable adjustments are in place. Information is shared with relevant staff to help ensure pupils are fully supported throughout their time in school.

Where appropriate, we seek guidance and support from external agencies and provide staff training linked to individual pupil needs. Whenever possible, this training is completed prior to transition to support a smooth and successful start at school.
