What is a local offer?
The local offer provides information on what services children, young people and their families can expect from a range of local agencies, including education, health and social care. Knowing what is out there gives you more choice and therefore more control over what support is right for your child.
The local offer provides information on a number of things, including:• Special educational provision;
• Health provision;
• Social care provision;
• Other educational provision;
• Training provision;
• Travel arrangements for children and young people to schools, colleges and early years education;
• Preparing for adulthood, including housing, employment and leisure opportunities.
Help is on hand –
Any child may at some point in their life require extra help and support and at Cavendish we include all children and make sure they access a curriculum suited to their needs.
Children needing intervention are identified at the earliest possible opportunity and individual programmes are established after consultation with parents, pupils, class teachers, the Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator, and any relevant agencies including the Psychological Service.
Specialist help is also available
Our Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator works closely with our teaching staff and also members of external agencies.
Parents are welcome to come and look at our SEND policy, our SEN school offer and the Accessibility Action plan or download the attachments below.
The Governors of the school have adopted the Single Equality Scheme to promote equality for all in line with the Equality Act Oct 2010; to eliminate discrimination, harassment and victimisation; advance equality of opportunity; and foster good relations.
