Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)

 

At Eton Wick First School, we aim to provide an inclusive education which recognises, reflects and celebrates the diversity of all our pupils, including those with special educational needs and disabilities.

Our ethos as a church of England School is captured in the vision of a good seed growing in good soil. We endeavour to provide an environment in which all our pupils can develop, learn and grow.

 

Our pupils are all encouraged to be safe, act responsibly and aim high.  We ensure that all our pupils have equal access to a broad and balanced curriculum and are fully included in all aspects of school life including additional activities such as clubs and trips.  We embrace diversity and promote equality and equity; making reasonable adjustments where needed to remove barriers to learning.

 

We strive to work closely with parents and in partnership with a variety of external support services in order to fulfil the needs and potential of every child at our school.
