Rose Hill Accessibility Plan 2021
Introduction
This plan identifies how the school meets the needs of disabled pupils in response to the Special Educational Needs and Disabilities Code of Practice 2014: 0 to 25 years.
Definitions of SEND
‘A child or young person has SEN if they have a learning difficulty or disability which calls for special educational provision to be made for him or her.
A child of compulsory school age or a young person has a learning difficulty or a disability if he or she:
- has significantly greater difficulty in learning than the majority of others of the same age or
- has a disability which prevents or hinders him or her making use of facilities of a kind generally provided for others of the same age in mainstream schools or colleges.’
(SEND Code of Practice 2014)
The Accessibility Plan should be read in conjunction with
- The LA Admissions Policy.
- The School Prospectus.
- The Equality and Diversity Policy.
- The Behaviour Policy.
- The Special Educational Needs policy.
- The School Offer.
