Special Educational Needs

At Burton upon Stather Primary School we want to make sure every child gets the best support we can offer in order to help them to enjoy their learning, feel confident and happy amongst their friends and make the best possible progress. Every child has individual needs that will affect their learning. Sometimes children need special support to help them to achieve their own potential. They may need this support for a short time or longer period, but during this time they will be part of our Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) register. 

We strive to support all children to enable them to achieve at school. In order to do this many steps are taken to support them through their learning journey.

Quality teaching is vital; however for some children there are occasions when further additional support may be needed to help them achieve their targets.

This is where the SEND Team step in.

The SEND Team consists of:

Mrs Emily Eyre - Headteacher 

Miss Claire Clarkson - Special Educational Needs & Disability Co-ordinator

Mrs Sophie Cartwright - Assistant Special Educational Needs Disability Co-ordinator

Mrs Mel Robinson - Pastoral Manager
