SEND
Please find our full SEN Information Report at the bottom of this page. It is part of the Norfolk Local Offer for learners with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).
We refer to the term 'Special educational needs' if a child/young person
- Has a significantly greater difficulty in learning than the majority of others of the same age
- Has a disability which prevents or hinders him or her from making use of facilities of a kind generally provided for others of the same age in mainstream schools or mainstream post-16 institutions.
The Difficulty or Disability may relate to the broad areas of need:
- Communication and interaction
- Cognition & Learning
- Social, Emotional and Mental Health (this includes behavioural issues)
- Sensory and /or Physical
If you have any concerns about your child's learning with respect to Special Eucational Needs, please contact the school's SENCO, Donna Southon; senco@watlington.norfolk.sch.uk
