The aim of the provision is to make sure that every student can reach their full potential during their time at Hunterhouse College and to equip our students with the skills, confidence and capabilities for life beyond the college.
Please Note: When a student joins Hunterhouse College from another school, their SEND provision will be reviewed as part of the admissions process. Students previously supported at Stage 1 will initially be placed at Stage 0 while baseline information is gathered. This enables us to assess their current strengths and needs and determine the extent to which they can access whole-school provision. Support will then be reviewed in line with the Graduated Response, with any additional provision tailored to the individual student's needs.
The SEN Code of Practice is an important guidance document that all statutory educational settings/schools must follow when making decisions about identifying, assessing and making provision for children/young people who have, or may have, special educational needs.
Learning Support will differ for every student in Hunterhouse College as we aim to tailor the education for the needs of each student as an individual. Reasonable adjustments we may put in place to support your child include:
- Access to The Hub for 1:1 support / time out
- Access to Sensory Room
- Peer Mentoring
- Lunchtime Mentoring
- ASD external 1:1 support with AAIS
- Referral to Educational Psychologist
- Testing for Access Arrangements
