Heybrook Primary and Nursery School
Special educational needs and disabilities (SEnD)
Heybrook is an inclusive setting where we make education available for all children. We have high expectations and strive to meet the needs of all children enabling them to meet their full potential. This means that some children require additional and different support. This can look differently for different children. More information can be found in our Information Report and SEND Policy. One of our core principles is for children to be happy and be successful, as it is paramount that children develop self-confidence and positive self-esteem. Therefore, we ensure all children receive their entitlement to a broad, balanced and differentiated curriculum with lots of opportunities for success. We also firmly believe that all children have an entitlement to an education that enables them to develop basic skills across the curriculum.
If your child has an Educational Health Care Plan (EHCP), then applications for admission are made through the Rochdale Council EHC Team. If your child does not have an EHCP, applications are made through Rochdale Council Admissions Team. The school's Accessibility Plan and Equality policy outline the facilities we have to help disabled pupils access the school and how we ensure disabled pupils are treated equally.

The progress of all children is monitored closely through regular assessment and evaluation of progress. Teaching staff intervene quickly where children are making limited progress. At this point, children may access additional support through well-planned, researched interventions.
School staff work closely with families and if issues ever arise, staff members are keen to resolve these swiftly and effectively. Further information about how complaints are dealt with can be found on the policy section of this website.
