SEND
Special Educational Needs and Disabilities
At Sidmouth Primary we believe all children have individual needs, strengths and talents. We recognise that any child may require additional support at some point within their learning journey. We feel it is vital to identify children needing extra support as soon as possible. This will always be done in consultation with parents, the children and, where necessary, outside agencies.
