Who is the SENCO at Highfield?

Mrs Victoria Wall is the SENCO and it is her job to champion our children who have additional needs and their families. She is qualified at masters-level in the National Award for Special Educational Needs Co-ordination and is the Lead Professional for Autism within school.
She is SENCO full-time.

There are many ways Mrs Wall fulfills this role and below is just a flavour of what happens:

• Supporting children and their parents at multi-agency meetings;

• Completing assessments and paperwork to secure additional support for children;

• Providing training and resources to staff to ensure they have the very best in class provision for children with additional needs;

• Offering every parent of a child with SEN with an appointment each term to discuss their child's needs and next steps. This is in addition to the usual learning review meetings with the class teacher.
