At Blackwater Community Primary School is an inclusive school which values and respects the right of all children to learn. We recognise that all children have individual needs, that not every child learns in the same way or at the same rate and we aim to understand and provide for the learning needs of the children in our school, in order for all to make progress.
To do this we listen to and work in partnership with children and their parents / carers, use and develop our wide knowledge and experience of a range of Special Needs and Disabilities within the school, actively seek professional support when it is needed, be flexible and open to change in our learning environment and have a commitment to developing the whole child, recognising that emotional and social development are a vital part of the learning process.
All our staff are fully trained to support all children and their needs and we have a strong commitment to meeting the needs of any child. We embrace the fact that every child is unique and, therefore, the educational needs of every child is different; this is definitely the case for children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). We ensure that all children are equally valued by having equal access to a broad and balanced curriculum which is differentiated to meet individual needs and abilities. We ensure that we undertake training and gain advice specific to children with additional or special needs in our care in order to meet their individual needs.
