Inclusion and Additional Learning Needs
The Inclusion Service promotes achievement and wellbeing for all children and young people. In essence, it means making sure that all children and young people have access to the same opportunities and services as everybody else and receive a high quality education, which is broad, balanced and relevant to meeting their individual needs. The Inclusion strategy states that the majority of school age learners can and should be educated with others of their own age in their local community school which is properly equipped and fit for purpose. If you would like some general advice and guidance about your child’s additional need you should contact the Parental Partnership Service by telephoning 01437 776354.
