Special Educational Needs & Disabilities (SEND)

Special Educational Needs and Disabilities

The Grove is a mainstream, inclusive school that fully complies with the requirements outlined in the Special Educational Needs Code of Practice (2015).

We have an attached specialist centre for speech, language and communication needs (SLCN) with places for pupils throughout EYFS, KS1 and KS2. Pupils attending the centre all have Education, Health and Care  (EHC) Plans where Communication and Interaction, including speech language and communication needs, is noted to be the primary area of need. Pupils attending the centre will also be able to access the mainstream curriculum and will therefore also have a place in the mainstream classroom. For more information about our SLCN centre click here to be taken to The Link.

The SENCOs at The Grove are Mrs Linsey Mott (Tuesday-Friday) and Miss Lucy Llewellyn (SENCo for SLCN centre). They can be reached on 01276 22447 or senco@grove.kite.academy.
