At YPS we are an inclusive school and strive to ensure all children can reach the best of their potential at all times. We do this through creating reasonable adjustments and/or additional provisions or support within the school to meet the child’s requirements as outlined in the SEND Code of Practice (2015). We seek to identify any special educational needs at an early stage so we can provide appropriate support for each individual child. to identify any special educational needs at an early stage so we can provide appropriate support for each individual child.
The SEND Department consists of an experienced full time SENDCo (Special Educational Needs Coordinator) who is a nationally qualified SENDCo and teacher who is supported by Class teachers and classroom Teaching Assistants. All classroom staff receive ongoing professional development training from the SENDCo and external specialists to enable continuous development for all pupils across a broad range of need.
We work closely with various external agencies including Occupational Therapists, Speech and Language Therapists, Hearing and Visual impairment advisory teams, Speech, Language, Communication and Autism team alongside other teams and advisors. As a feeder school to Yavneh College we hold close links with the SEND team at YC to ensure greater continuity in each child’s education.
