Meet our SEND team

Within our SEND team, we have a SENDCo, SEND Lead, a number of specialist roles and Learning Support Assistants. Our SENDCo and SEND Lead work alongside the Heads of Year and Heads of House to monitor student progress and will ensure that your children have every opportunity to become the best they can be. Our SEND Leads liaise with parents, carers, students and outside agencies to make sure that reasonable adjustments are in place to allow students to be fully included and supported in every aspect of school life.
