Special Educational Needs

At St James’ C of E Primary School we believe in the concept of the learning community and lifelong learning. Through our teaching we aim to equip children with the skills, knowledge and understanding necessary to become independent learners, with the ability to make informed choices about the important things in their lives. We believe that appropriate learning and teaching experiences help children to continue to develop and explore their potential.

Our SEND provision allows pupils with learning difficulties the opportunity to follow a curriculum specifically tailored to develop life skills and to give pupils self-confidence through their learning thus enabling them to maximize their potential and to work independently.
We are committed to narrowing the attainment gap between SEND and non-SEND pupils. This may include short-term intervention learning programmes, before and after school skills groups and other learning interventions developed to personalise learning.
We have very good attendance as pupils want to come to school to experience our high quality learning provision.
All children and young people are entitled to an education that enables them to make progress so that they:
• achieve their best
• become confident individuals living fulfilling lives
• make a successful transition into adulthood.

If your child has special educational needs and/or a disability and you would like to know more about what we offer at St James’ C of E Primary School please contact us on 0161 224 6173 or e-mail us at:
