Changes to Special Educational Needs
~ The Special Educational Needs and Disability Code of Practice 0-25 years ~
• Came into effect on 1st September 2014
We have 3 years to make these changes ~ some changes have already happened others will be
introduced over time
• Person-centred planning : Pupil views of utmost importance
• Increased involvement of parents and carers in the decision making
process
We will be introducing the opportunity for you to meet with the class teacher prior to the
‘Provision Mapping’ meeting to share your views about your child’s needs. This will inform the
provision being offered. A second meeting will be arranged to discuss the Provision Map and
the provision further.
• Continue to have at least 3 meetings per year to discuss your child’s needs
and types of provision on offer
• Special Educational Needs provision and progress will be commented on in
your child’s Annual Report

Marking
Lunchtime Behaviour System
•
•
Yellow card
This is a warning. The lunchtime supervisors will write down the child’s name
in their book and talk to the child about what rule they have broken.
Red card
If they break a rule a second time or they do something serious, the child will
get a red card. Miss Alison will send a letter to the parent/carer to tell them
about the behaviour and the child will have a lunchtime detention the
following day with Miss Alison.
•
If they misbehave again, they will receive another red card.
The parent/carer will have to come for a meeting with Mrs Holland and Miss
Alison to discuss the behaviour and they will have a lunchtime detention for 2
days.
•
If your child gets another Red card, it is very serious, they will have a
lunchtime detention for 3 days and you will have a meeting with Mrs Holland.
The child will go on a ‘report card’ to check their behaviour every play and
lunchtime for 10 consecutive days. You will then meet Mrs Holland again to
check improvements have been made. At the end of each term the slate is
wiped clean and children start each term without a record of detentions or
red cards.
General Reminders
• Please make sure that book bags, PE kits and
water bottles are in school every day.
• All school clothes and PE kits MUST be
labelled, (there is a uniform list on the school
website).
• Call the office if your child is absent.
• No holidays will be authorised in term time.
