Special Educational Needs
In planning and teaching the National Curriculum, Dovecote Primary and Nursery School is committed to the inclusion of all pupils and to providing effective learning opportunities for all.
To meet this objective, the school will follow the fundamental principles of the DfE SEN Code of Practice and Routes to Inclusion (R2I) – a toolkit developed by Nottingham City Council to support schools to promote the inclusion of all children and young people.
Our Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator (SENCo) is Sarah Hudson. Mrs Hudson recently joined Dovecote Primary School, having previously worked in both primary and secondary schools in Nottingham and is an experienced SENCo.
Prior to a child coming into school, Mrs Hudson and/or a member of the Senior Leadership Team will meet with the parents/carers of individual children to discuss any additional needs their child may have and how those needs can be effectively met. The school can also access the advice and support of the Nottingham City Autism Team, Educational Psychology Service and Inclusive Education Service should there be the need to do so.
We pride ourselves on being an extremely inclusive school at Dovecote Primary and Nursery School.
If you have you would like to discuss any additional needs your child has, then please contact Mrs Hudson or Mrs Guy-Clark on 0115 915 2953.
