Special Educational Needs
How do I get help for my child?
St Dunstan’s Catholic Primary School is an inclusive and welcoming school. We offer a range of provision to support children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities in order to ensure that all pupils, regardless of their specific needs, make the best possible progress in school.
Click here to view our Special Educational Needs (SEN) information report, this gives an overview of the provision you can expect your child to receive at St Dunstan’s. If you have any questions about the content of this report please contact the school SENDCo: Mrs Bennett who will be happy to answer any of your questions.
What is the Local Offer?
As a result of the Children & Families Act, Local Authorities are required to publish and regularly review the information and services they provide for children and young people who have Special Educational Needs & Disabilities (SEND). The services provided by the Local Authority are accessible to children and young people aged 0-25. Each Local Authority refers to this as the Local Offer. It is hoped that Parents and Carers will be able to access support, advice and information to services for their children by accessing the Local Offer site.
Each school in Birmingham will link their SEND Information Report with the Local Offer website so that parents can find the school that meets their children’s needs more easily. Click here to view the Birmingham Local offer.
