Beacon is a very inclusive school that provides the support for all children to thrive and develop as individuals. We take our responsibilities of equality very seriously and work hard to ensure that everybody connected to the school is made to feel welcome and provided with the resources and support to enable them to enjoy and feel fully involved in the Beacon family.
We strive to ensure that our lessons are highly differentiated and adapted so that all of the children with special educational needs are able to access the curriculum at their level and can achieve. We work closely with our teachers, teaching assistants, learning support assistants and external professionals to deliver an inclusive curriculum and to ensure that the correct support is in place for our children.
Our children are given access to a wider curriculum in many different ways including through additional sports clubs and competitions tailored to their needs - such as our own Boccia team, who reached the national finals! We also have our own sensory room for the children with additional sensory needs to thrive and feel safe and secure.
We understand that having a child with special educational needs can be challenging and sometimes isolating for parents. To support parents through this journey we host SEND coffee mornings, which gives our parents the opportunity to share, advise and support each other.
We know that for parents, communication and understanding of the individual is key to a successful education and we hope that by working together we can ensure that every child at Beacon Primary School can achieve and be successful.
