Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND)
Our SENDCo and Inclusion Lead is Donna Connor. Should you wish to contact her, her email address is sendco@kewriverside.richmond.sch.uk
At Kew Riverside, we believe that all children are entitled to an education that enables them to make progress so that they:
- reach their potential
- become confident, independent individuals living fulfilling lives, and
- make a successful transition into the next stage of their education.
This policy is written in line with the requirements of:
- Part 3 of the Children and Families Act 2014
- SEND Code of Practice 2014
- The Special Educational Needs and Disability Regulations 2014
- The Special Educational Needs (Personal Budgets and Direct Payments) Regulations, Section 49
- The Order setting out transitional arrangements, Section 137
- The Equality Act 2010
It should also be read in conjunction with the following Kew Riverside policies:
- School Vision
- Behaviour Policy
- Anti-Bullying Policy
- Exclusions Policy
- Equalities Policy
- Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy
