Meet the Inclusion Team here

All Lambeth maintained schools have a similar approach to meeting the needs of pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities and are supported by the Local Authority to ensure that all pupils, regardless of their specific needs, make the best possible progress in school. All schools are supported to be as inclusive as possible, with the needs of pupils with a Special Educational Need/s and or Disabilities being met in a mainstream setting wherever possible, where families want this to happen.  Pupils with a Special Educational Need/s and or Disabilities will take part in the activities of the school together with pupils without a Special Educational Need/s and or Disabilities whenever possible.

The school will meet the needs of children with the following SEND:

• Communication and interaction

• Cognition and learning

• Social, mental and emotional health

• Sensory /physical
