Details of Holy Trinity’s SEND provision can be seen on our website and on Sutton’s Local offer. We assess and track the children carefully so we can identify and meet needs; intervening as early as possible.
Children with SEND have Individual Provision Plans (IPPs) written in consultation with parents or carers and these are reviewed three times a year in line with the code of practice. These set out, monitor, assess and review progress towards targets and then inform future provision. We support the children with experienced teachers and support staff who work with children 1:1, in class and in small groups, all of which are carefully assessed and reviewed.
Where necessary and the children meet criteria, we work closely with outside agencies to facilitate the best possible provision. At Holy Trinity we also recognise that social, emotional and behavioural issues are important so we provide support in social skills and we have a trained ELSA (Emotional Literacy Support Assistant) who is supervised by the Educational Psychology service. The ELSA will work 1:1 with a child over about 6 weeks on a specific target that has been identified. The work is child led and practical.
At Holy Trinity we appreciate that parents have a vital role to play in their child’s education and if you have any concerns regarding SEND and your child please do contact us.
The SENDCo works Wednesday to Friday and is supported by the deputy head who works full-time, so there is always someone to talk to.
Our SENDCo is Mrs A Cooper. If you would like to speak with Mrs Cooper please contact the office.
