How do you monitor how much progress is being made by pupils with SEND?

Where a child is identified as having SEND, the school will seek to remove barriers to learning and put SEND provision in place

At least every term, pupils with SEND go through a four-part cycle (assess, plan, do, review). These arrangements include:

  • a Graduated Approach (Assess-Plan-Do-Review)

  • an assessment of the child’s needs

  • a Multi-Element Plan (MEP)

  • data tracking for pupil progress

  • observations and follow up

  • involvement of an outside agency

  • a parent review meeting

  • a review of the interventions and support in place

Outside agencies: You may be asked to give permission for your child to be referred to a specialist provision, e.g. Educational Psychologist, Speech and Language Therapists or the Community Paediatrician. This will help the school and you to understand your child’s needs better and support them more effectively.
