SEND
At Austwick CE (VA) Primary School, we believe that every child is unique, with their own light to shine. Our approach to Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) is rooted deeply in our Christian vision of “Let Your Light Shine, Nurturing all to flourish.” We are committed to ensuring that all children—whatever their needs, strengths, or challenges—are supported, encouraged, and celebrated. Through personalised provision, inclusive practice, and strong partnerships with families and specialists, we work to remove barriers so that every pupil can grow academically, socially, and spiritually. In our caring and nurturing environment, we aim for every child to flourish, to feel valued, and to shine brightly as the individual that they are.
SEND Co-ordinator: Mrs Alison McGregor
