Our Learning Support Hub aims to make the support for children multi-sensory, fun and specific to the needs of the individual.
At Edgeborough we aim to ensure that every child achieves their potential and we provide additional academic support where appropriate to allow every child to thrive.
Most pupils’ needs will be met within the context of the classroom, using an appropriately differentiated curriculum and simple classroom adaptations. If a pupil does not make adequate progress then, in liaison with teachers and parents, the Director of SEND will begin to assess whether the pupil has a special educational need. In-house assessments may be carried out or, if necessary, referrals made to external agencies.
Those children identified as having a special educational need may receive support through our Learning Support Hub. This support is generally provided in one-to-one sessions with one of our specialist teachers, who are trained to support children with specific learning difficulties. We aim to make the support multi-sensory, fun and specific to the needs of the individual child. Pupils receiving support through LEAP work towards specific targets which are shared with their teachers and parents through a personal Pupil Profile. This also gives classroom teachers suggestions for supporting the pupil within the classroom.
