SEND

Meet the SENCO

Our Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator (SENCo) is Mrs Anita Norburn.
It is our aim to provide every child with the best education possible. Our objective in setting out the school’s Special Educational Needs Information Report is to make everyone aware that we want all pupils to benefit as fully as possible from the education provided within the school.

Additional support will be offered for children who require around the 4 broad areas of SEN:

  1. Communication and Interaction
  2. Cognition and Learning
  3. Social, Mental, and Emotional Health
  4. Sensory and /or Physical
If you require any more information please contact Anita at anorburn@mmb.srscmat.co.uk
