Special Educational Needs
At Oakwood Primary Academy we aspire for all children to achieve their full potential. We aim to work in partnership with parents and children to best match provision to support a child's needs.
As well as your child's class teacher, our SENCo Natasha Jackson is also available to talk through any concerns that you have about your child's education and well-being. We firmly believe in early identification and intervention.
‘A pupil has SEN (Special Educational Needs) where their learning difficulty or disability calls for special educational provision, that is provision different from or additional to that normally available to pupils of the same age.’ (SEN Code of Practice p.82)
Below is a copy of our SEN information report and our SEN policy. Both documents will give you advice, contacts and information on how the school supports SEN children and their parents/carers. Please do not hesitate to contact the school if you have any further questions.
