At Courtney we aim to provide the best education possible for all children, regardless of their starting point or disability. Sometimes some children need extra support and there are systems in school to make sure that this support helps them thrive in school. It may be that your child is placed on the 'special educational needs and disability' (SEND) register or assessment undertaken over a period of time, to see if your child can get additional support through an 'Education and Health Care Plan,' (EHCP).
Our Special Needs Coordinator (SENCo) is Ms Barter. She will work with the children, their families and with external agencies to make the best provision is put into place for each child.
Ms Barter is contactable Monday to Friday, you can call the office on 08454 866670 or email via senco@courtneyps.org.uk.
