Welcome from the Inclusion Team
The inclusion team at Stanford Junior School is made up of our Inclusion Coordinator, Miss Doran, a learning mentor, Mrs Golton, and a number of individual needs assistants.
The team's remit is to work with children in school who need additional support to engage fully in school life. This includes children with special educational needs and disabilities, children with emotional needs, and those with English as an additional language.
Support may be needed for a short time or over their whole school experience. Robust assessment and clear communication are central to the identification of additional needs and in planning for appropriate provision. We recognise the central importance of partnership with you as parents and carers and the team will involve you fully in any decisions about your child.
The team benefits from the advice and support of a range of external agencies and is constantly seeking to develop knowledge and expertise in supporting children with a wide range of needs.
Members of the team are always available and happy to talk.
If you have any concerns about your child, please telephone or email Miss Doran via the school office.
