Special Educational Needs and Disabilities

At Earley St Peter's, we believe that every child is entitled to an inclusive broad and balanced curriculum. Our culture of high expectations is ambitious for all children, including those with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities, to reach their full potential. Therefore, our staff team aim to create a caring, friendly and nurturing environment where all children thrive socially, personally and academically.

Autism Awareness Month

This year every child was given sunflower seeds to take home and plant over the holidays. As a school we talked about how sunflowers represent life and hope and how just as no two sunflowers are exactly the same, each child is unique and special – something we’re particularly proud to celebrate during Autism Awareness Month.

Children also developed their understanding of Makaton. Below are a few of Makaton signs that we have learnt. We have been so impressed with how enthusiastic the children have been about learning a new skill and sharing it with others.

Special Education Needs or Disabilities (SEND) is a term used to describe children who have additional needs in one of the following areas of their development:

Communication and interaction
Cognition and learning
Social and emotional health
Sensory and/or physical difficulties

The SENDCo and class teacher meet regularly with parents to ensure they are informed of the progress and next steps in development for their child.
