SEND at HPP

Special Educational Needs & Disabilities

At Hampton Primary Partnership our vision for children with special educational needs and disabilities is the same as for all children: they achieve at school, have the same opportunities, are happy and make excellent progress from their starting points. We promote an atmosphere of encouragement, acceptance and respect for effort and achievement. Our core aims are to set ambitious targets and to ensure excellence for all. We ensure children become increasingly independent so that by the end of each Key Stage they are ready for the next stage of their education.

‘Pupils with SEND are swiftly identified. The school works well with external agencies and specialists to establish the right types of support based on pupils’ needs. This information is communicated with staff, who make appropriate adaptations to tasks and activities across subjects. This means that pupils with SEND are very well supported to access the same ambitious curriculum as their peers’ (Ofsted at HISN, December 2023)

‘The school identifies the needs of pupils with SEND with precision. Leaders are ambitious for these pupils and ensure that they follow the same curriculum as their peers, with adaptations to teaching if needed. As a result, these pupils achieve exceptionally well’ (Ofsted at HJS, June 2024).

We are an advocate of the Local Authority’s Inclusion Charter which states that all children are welcome and we understand that every child is unique and learns in different ways.

Information about how the local authority supports children with SEND in maintained schools can be found in the local offer at:

Special Educational Needs and Disability Register

All local authorities must have a record or register of children with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND) in their area. Anyone living in Richmond, whose family includes a child or young person whose has a special educational need or disability is encouraged to register.

Everyone on the register will benefit from:

• Information about support, services, activities and event

• Opportunities to have your say about the services that are important to you
• The knowledge that your anonymous statistical data is helping us to plan and improve services

The SEND information report details the way in which we at Hampton Primary Partnership support children with Special Educational Needs and disabilities in our school. This report has been co-produced with Governors, parents and carers.
