​At Woodfield Academy, we are a fully inclusive school and work alongside the Governing Body, Multi Academy Trust, Health Professionals and community organisations to find the most appropriate and effective support for the students within our care.

We see all learners and potential learners, and their parents and carers, as of equal value and as individuals, irrespective of ability, race, gender or need. This is reflected in the school #OneWoodfield values, curriculum , its assessment and rewards systems and the arrangements made for careers’ education and work experience.

All our members of staff have a responsibility to ensure that every student has an equal opportunity to attain their maximum potential in all aspects of the curriculum. We are committed to the ongoing training and development of all our staff to ensure that ‘all teachers are teachers of SEND’. We develop good communication with our parents/carers of SEND children, informing them of their child’s progress at regular points throughout the year, working hard to understand the situation and catering for the varied needs of the child.

The following documents and resources will give you more information in relation to SEND and how school and home can support children. If you have any concerns or wish to discuss SEND at our school, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Complaints about SEND provision in our school should be made to the class teacher in the first instance. A meeting can be held with the SENDCo to address concerns. If concerns are not resolved the complaints procedure needs to be followed. The parents of pupils with disabilities have the right to make disability discrimination claims to the first tier SEND tribunal if they believe that our school has discriminated against a pupil.
