We are conscious that transition to secondary school will mean different things for different families. Whilst some will want the core information others will need additional support for specific requirements. This is very normal and every child is supported at Winton.

Special Education Needs
Special Education Needs
All children are different, and have different needs. Although your child will be joining a larger school, knowing and understanding our pupils is central to everything we do at Winton. Before your child joins the school, we liaise closely with our primary colleagues, sharing relevant information and planning additional transition support where needed.

Once at Winton, we have a highly effective Curriculum Support team, and collaborate closely with subject specialists and middle leaders to ensure that pupils' needs are met - whether this is through careful differentiation in class, tailored routines, LSA support or targeted intervention programmes. Children's aptitudes and difficulties often change over time. Pupils' reading ages are tested every term, so that we can work with you to support your child's progress, and we use teacher referrals and specialist screening to identify learning needs and plan relevant provision.
