The Sendco and Assistant Headteacher at Timbertree Academy is Mrs Marie Malcolm. As a Senior Leader she ensures that parents and carers are offered the best inclusive provision for our children and families. There is a strong team who are dedicated to tailoring learning to every child’s needs irrespective of gender, race or disability. The school has an Equality Policy and ensures that there is equality of opportunity and those children with Special Education Needs and Disabilities are not disadvantaged.
We strongly believe in helping every pupil reach their full potential. Sometimes our children may need a little extra help and support to succeed in their education and social interactions. Positive relationships between adults and children are paramount. From the very beginning, our children learn that we are safe and trustworthy adults, who are reliable and approachable, who will listen and value their opinions and beliefs and remain consistent.
The staff in school support children with a variety of needs. Staff may work in sessions on a 1:1 basis, with peer mentors or with small groups as well as during quality first teaching. Children at SEN support will be placed on the SEN register with parental consent and consultation and will be part of an ongoing process called Assess-Plan-Do-Review. This enables all people involved with children who have additional needs to set personal targets, monitor progress, review and plan next steps.
We invite you to join us each half term for our SEND Coffee Morning, where we discuss various aspects of Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). This event is open to all parents with children who have identified SEND needs.
Each session will feature a guest speaker and the SEND Governor will be in attendance to provide support and answer any questions you may have.
We look forward to seeing you there!
You can contact me in a variety of ways; through the school office, speak over the telephone, make an appointment, write to me or catch me when you see me around the school site. I shall endeavour to find time to listen to any worries or concerns as soon as possible.
