Our Support for Learning Team works with children of all abilities including meeting the needs of the most able as well as those who may be experiencing a barrier to the achieving of their full academic potential. For some support is temporary whereas for others it is on-going.
The team liaises extensively with all those involved in meeting pupil needs, both in school and, where appropriate, educational psychologists and other relevant professionals. Support may then be provided through withdrawal from class for a limited period each week or through cooperative teaching whereby a number of pupils may be supported in the classroom in key curricular areas.
The Support for Learning team works to ensure that children are as prepared as they can be for public exams and can make arrangements for children with additional needs such as the need for scribes, IT use or extra time.
