Most children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) attend a mainstream school. With the right support in place, all children can make good progress in our inclusive schools.
Each school or setting has:
- a member of staff called a Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO) who oversees SEND support
- SEN support plans
- an accessibility plan setting out how children and young people with disabilities can be supported
- teachers trained to support a wide range of students
- the option to ask for more support from our Newcastle City Council SEND service teams
You'll find SEND policies and information about SEN support on your school's website.
