At Parkwood Primary School we strive to support all children to enable them to achieve at school. In order to do this many steps are taken to support them through their learning journey.
Quality teaching is vital however for some children there are occasions when further additional support may be needed to help them achieve their full potential.
The school has a trained team of adults who work with children with SEND and pastoral needs to ensure that their needs are met to enable them to enjoy their school experience, feel happy in school and therefore be able to reach their full learning potential.
Please feel free to contact the SEND team via the office should you have any concerns or require further information so we can discuss the next steps for your child.
