SEND Information

Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)

At Badgerbrook, we are an inclusive school. We strive to remove barriers to learning to ensure that all children can reach their full potential.

Use this page to find out more about any learning difficulties your child may have and what you can do:

  • Contact your classteacher – if you are concerned about your child, please do not hesitate to contact the class teacher, in the first instance, who will happily discuss progress and ways in which you can help your child.
  • Contact our Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator – Mrs Donna Kirby, through the office. She is a qualified teacher, has worked as a SENDCo for over 15 years and is a member of the Senior Leadership team.
  • Read our SEND Information Report – which gives a summary of all we do at Badgerbrook to provide additional support for your child if they do have any special educational needs. Find it here
  • Check out the Leicestershire Authority’s Local Offer – which gives children and young people with SEND and their families information about help and local services to Leicestershire. For more information about what the Local Authority can provide please click here
  • Our SEND policy – for our collaborative approach to SEND. This has been decided with other schools in the Discover Trust. Find it here
