Inclusion and SEND
Here at Priory Park Infant School we are committed to providing all children with an inclusive learning community, where they are able thrive within all aspects of school life. We provide a nurturing and therapeutic environment where all children are supported to succeed and feel proud of their achievements.
Our Inclusion Team brings together a wealth of experience and specialist training to support the needs of children at Priory Park Infants. Team members work together with all members of the school community in order to overcome barriers to learning, celebrate differences and nurture individuality. All of our staff are highly skilled in therapeutic practices which support and nurture children's holistic development. In addition to our Inclusion Team, we have a highly skilled nurture team in school who are available to support children for a range of reasons from bereavement to anxiety.
At Priory Park Infant School, we have a range of systems and processes in place to support children's individual needs. A child's Special Educational Needs will fall into one or more of 4 categories: Cognition and Learning, Sensory and Physical, Social Interaction and Communication, and/or Social Emotional. We are proud of our core offer which means that all children have access to quality first teaching and utilise our ordinally available provision effectively so are classrooms are inclusive and adaptive. Alongside our OAP, we offer a range of interventions to support individual needs such as morning sensory circuits, Attention Autism, ERT, Lego Therapy and ELSA. We also have a Play Therapist and offer Drawing and Talking therapy within school.
If you have any concerns about your child's individual needs, please speak to your child's class teacher in the first instance, who will liaise with the SENCo and wider inclusion team . To contact our SENCo Mrs York directly, please email: senco@park.cambs.sch.uk
