Special Educational Needs & Disabilities
Lyminster Primary is an inclusive and happy school with high aspirations for all our pupils and delivering for our SEND children is a key part of our success in achieving this.
Lyminster provides a secure yet challenging environment which celebrates both achievement and effort. We support all children to access the National Curriculum through Quality First Teaching and where necessary, adapted and differentiated tasks, enabling all out children to realize their full potential.
We strive to support our SEND children to learn, reflect and question, within a learning environment that allows the children to feel safe, happy, confident and successful. To achieve this, we provide 1:1, in class and small group interventions to ensure our SEND children experience a broad and balanced curriculum. We are never complacent and are always seeking to improve what we can offer to our SEND children.
Progress for our SEND children is measured through the Assess, Plan, Do Review process detailed in the child’s Individual Support Plan (ISP). The ISP is reviewed termly by the SENDCo, class teacher, pupil and parent to ensure progress is being made towards targets set.

SEN Information Report
The aim of the SEN Information Report is to improve the accessibility and transparency of information for parents, professionals and practitioners. One of the outcomes of this will be a shared understanding of available services and resources to support open conversations. We want to work in close partnership with parents, our local community and other professionals in order to provide high quality education for all our pupils.
The Local Offer comprises of fourteen questions that provide parents and carers with information about the provision provided and arrangements made at our school to support children and young people with Special Educational Needs or Disabilities.
