SEND Information

Our SENDCo is Mrs Tina Foster and she can be contacted at school on 01253 855 215 and our Assistant SENDCo is Mrs Jane Carter.

The Schools’ SENDCo works closely with our parents to discuss their child’s needs and progress. All children on the SEND register have a personal education plan. Some individuals may have a Education Health and Care Plans (EHCP) in place.

At Anchorsholme Academy, we aim to ensure that all pupils have access to a broad, balanced, differentiated curriculum and realise their full potential in a happy and caring environment. The whole school approach to teaching pupils with special educational needs and disabilities is child centred and relies on a collective, collaborative and shared responsibility thereby ensuring they feel that they are an integral part of their class and the school. We strive to ensure that all children feel a sense of belonging. All teachers at Anchorsholme Academy are teachers of pupils with SEND.

The School makes every effort to welcome and accommodate disadvantaged pupils. All pupils are treated equally, regardless of disability, race, gender or religion.

The SEND Reforms placed a statutory requirement on schools from September 2014 to make information available to parents about how the school supports children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities. This information forms the basis of the Blackpool Local Offer.
