Inclusion

At St Margaret's, all children are welcomed and valued and we are committed to ensuring our curriculum is inclusive to all members of our school community. We know all of our children as individuals and tailor our offer to their differing needs and abilities.

Our aspirations for all children are consistently high and we appreciate the strengths that they bring to our community. We ensure that our children with SEND have positive self-esteem and truly understand these strengths. We achieve this by creating opportunities for children to share their passions and really promote their interests.

We provide an inclusive environment where children are encouraged to work collaboratively and be involved in all aspects of school life. Inclusivity to us means recognising and valuing difference and ensuring that each individual gets the support that they need in order to meet their personal goals.

If you think that your child may be having difficulties in class or on the playground, the first thing to do is have a chat with your class teacher. If we think your child needs some interventions or extra support, you can also contact me. You can email, telephone or speak to me in the mornings when I am usually standing at the gates, welcoming the children into school.
