SEND at Anston Brook

At Anston Brook Primary, we want all of our pupils to be able to make the most of their education and know that they are valuable members of the school community, regardless of their particular needs.

We give pupils with Special Education Needs and Disabilities (SEND) the support that they need, along with a broad and balanced curriculum. We work closely with families to help their children succeed and go on to the next stage of their education with confidence. We aim high with our SEND pupils, and we expect their results to be better than the national average.

Anston Brook SENDCo: Mrs Wilkinson

If you wish to speak to Mrs Wilkinson, ring the school office (01909 550599) or email enquiries@abp.wwpat.org

All Local Authorities are required to publish a Local Offer. The aim is to help anyone to easily find information about the services, activities and support available in the local area for children and young people with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities and their families. This information includes health, social care, education, leisure and information from charities and support groups. 


To can find more information regarding Rotherham's Local Offer using the link here.

The SENDCO has day-to-day responsibility for the operation of SEND policy and co-ordination of specific provision made to support individual pupils with SEND, including those who have EHC plans (or Statements until 2018)


The SENDCO at Anston Brook is Mrs Emma Wilkinson


The Head Teacher, Miss Sally Armstrong, has specific responsibility for safeguarding and is the DSL alongside Mrs Wilkinson and Mrs Marshall (DDSL).


In the absence of the Head Teacher, Mrs Wilkinson will take on the role of DSL, Mrs Marshall and Mr Hague as DDSLs.

At Anston Brook we use the definition for SEN and for disability from the SEND Code of Practice (2014). This states:


SEN: A child or young person has special educational needs if he or she has a learning difficulty or disability which calls for special educational provision to be made for him or her. A learning difficulty or disability is a significantly greater difficulty in learning than the majority of others of the same age. Special educational provision means educational or training provision that is additional to, or different from, that made generally for others of the same age in a mainstream setting in England.


Disability: Many children and young people who have SEN may have a disability under the Equality Act 2010 – that is ‘…a physical or mental impairment which has a long-term and substantial adverse effect on their ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities.’

EARLY HELP PATHWAYS


IN THIS SECTION




All families go through trying times at some point. Early Help staff will work with you at these times so that small problems don’t get bigger. We work with children, young people and families to offer support and advice when it’s most needed. We can work with you in your local area at one of our centres or even in your home.


We can help you:



  • If you are worried about a child's health, development or behaviour

  • If you are a child carer or young person looking to find training or further education

  • If you are a child carer or young person looking for advice on employment or benefits


Maybe your child or your family is, or has been, affected by domestic abuse, drugs, alcohol or crime. Or maybe you’ve had a bereavement which has made things harder.


We can provide help in a child’s early years. We also support children who are missing from school or home and give support when children or young people are involved in risky behaviour.
