Queen Elizabeth's High School
These aims were produced after consultation with Governors, staff, parents and students.
At Queen Elizabeth's High School, we aim for high standards in all we do.
We strive to fulfil the potential of each student. We set out to develop knowledge,
understanding, skills and values and we encourage endeavour and achievement of all kinds,
academic, sporting, artistic and personal.
We aim to achieve this through a carefully planned, broad education in which enthusiastic
teachers use a variety of teaching styles in activities inside and outside the classroom.
We work hard to involve students and parents in responsibility for learning. Staff set
themselves high standards and expect the same from students. All members of the QEHS
community are encouraged to contribute to the whole and from that gain a genuine sense of
belonging.
We aim to maintain a friendly and caring atmosphere, in which students and staff share a
mutual respect. We expect responsible behaviour from students; they can expect fair
treatment from staff. We intend to keep parents and students fully informed about our policies
and achievements and to listen to their views.
When they leave Queen Elizabeth's High School, we want students to be well-balanced adults,
inspired to continue their learning and able to contribute positively to society. We recognise
that school provides a solid and firm foundation upon which students build their lives. As such,
we focus on traditional values set in a modern-day context.
We an inclusive school which views each and every child as an individual with individual needs.
As such students who join us with SEN&D needs will be treated as an individual and we will
take all reasonable steps to meet the need of the child.
QEHS has received several awards including awards for our student voice and our support for
environmental awareness. We are also an enhanced Healthy School.
The individual experience lies at the heart of all of our work.

QEHS is committed to educating the whole child and
Description
children with SEN&D needs are encouraged to take part
in all aspects of school life including the House system.
We will make provision where it is reasonable to do so to
meet the needs and ambitions of all students including
students with SEND needs. This includes everything from
acting on stage or performing in a music concert to
competing in sporting competitions for their house.
Students with identified Special Education Needs are
supported through a dedicated team of Teaching
Assistants who have experience of and expertise in a
wide range of SEN, including ASD, Asperger's, Dyslexia
and Sensory impairment. This team is supported by a fulltime school counsellor and SENCO. Support can take a
variety of forms from 1:1 individual mentoring to support in
the classroom. Wherever possible QEHS aims to include
students in the learning experience and so supports
students in the classroom rather than removing students
from the classroom.
We have experience of students who have specific
medical needs such as Cystic Fibrosis, diabetes or brittle
bone disease. We can meet the needs of students
confined to a wheelchair as most of the site is either on
one level or there is accessibility provision such as lifts.
There are a very small number of areas of the school
which are not accessible but the resources provided in
these areas are offered in an accessible part of the
school. We have several accessible toilet facilities
including a hygiene suite.
Students may receive intensive support for short periods
of time or may be supported throughout their time in the
school; this is dependent on the individual need.
We have close working relationships with external
agencies including Educational Psychology, Occupational
Therapy, Sensory Impaired Unit and CAMHS.
We have successfully supported students with SEN
through to employment or University including the
selecting universities such as Oxford and Cambridge.
