4. What will school do to support my child?
When a child is identified as having additional needs school takes action to remove barriers to learning and puts provision in place. The process of providing support is through the Assess, Plan, Do, Review cycle:
The intervention is managed and monitored by the Additional Needs Leader through ’Provision Mapping’ for each child on the Additional Needs register. The provision map shows:
- Type of intervention work taking place
- Who is responsible for delivering the intervention
- How often the intervention will take place
- Data to track the effectiveness of the intervention
Information is updated every term.
Above and beyond 1:1 and small group support on individual targets, for example reading and spelling high frequency words, number recognition, basis number facts, we offer a range of structured intervention programmes. These vary depending on the needs of the children but include:
Cognition and Learning | Language and Communication | Personal, Social and Emotional | Physical Need |
