At The Canterbury Academy all staff are considered responsible for supporting the needs of students with SEND. Our staff are committed to regular, high-quality training to ensure that they have the knowledge and skills to better meet a wide range of student needs.
We believe “SEND is the responsibility of everyone” and “our students learn best from their peers.”
Our school provides for pupils with the following needs (as outlined in the SEND Code of Practice 2015).
Often you will find that children’s needs overlap and are rarely confined to one area of need, which is why it is important to gain a holistic overview of your child.
More information about the areas of need can be found in the Special Educational Needs and Disability Code of Practice: 0 to 25 years (link below).
