SEND information

SEND Information Report will give you the detail of how we support children with SEND in school.

At Market Drayton Infant and Nursery School we are an inclusive setting. As a school we take our responsibility to develop the whole child very seriously, catering for their emotional, intellectual, physical, spiritual, social and aesthetic needs in a sensitive way.

The SEND local offer is a single place for information, services, and resources for children and young people aged 0-25 with special educational needs and / or disabilities, their families, and the practitioners who support them. It’s been designed with a family’s needs at the heart of the process.

Having access to good quality information to help you understand the world of SEND is really important when making decisions about your child’s life. This is where websites such as this one can help.

The local offer has two main sections. The first is the information section, where systems and processes are explained, such as how to get extra help at nursery or school, or who to speak to if you’re worried about your child’s progress. This section will introduce you to services that might help your family, and help you to understand what support is available from a range of services across education, health and social care.

The second section is the service directory. This is a comprehensive list of services, clubs, support groups and businesses that might be of use to your family. It provides a brief introduction to what’s offered and contact details so that you can find out more. There’s also a feedback button for you to provide information about your experience of using a service, and a listing of events and activities that families supporting a young person with SEND might find of interest.
