At Heathbrook we understand that all children are individuals and their journeys will be unique. Children’s individual needs are addressed and a range of interventions are run throughout the school. Examples of these interventions include speech and language groups, Words First, Lego therapy and ‘Toe by Toe’. Your child’s class teacher will inform you if your child is receiving a specific intervention by letter at parent partnership meetings.
Your child’s classteacher is the first point of call if you have any concerns regarding their learning. However, we also have a committed Inclusion Team to help support our children at Heathbrook. If you would like to contact a member of this team please do so through the school office. Please also see our SEND Information Pack.
Our SEND Report is part of our Special Educational Needs and Disability Policy. Please also read our Early Intervention Commitment.
