SEN

At Birches Head High School we endeavour to meet the needs of all our students through our whole school inclusive practice and the additional provision through our SEN department – The Support Zone.
The Support Zone provides resources and advice to help student overcome barriers to learning.  Our aim is to ensure that each student has full access to the curriculum, regardless of their special education need, enabling them to reach their full potential.
To meet the needs of our students we offer:
  • Additional support during lessons to enable full access to a broad and balanced curriculum.
  • Specific intervention programs offered in small group sessions to develop Literacy and Numeracy skills. (Click for more info)
  • Specific intervention programs offered in small group and 1:1 sessions to support students experiencing barriers to learning due to behavioural, social and emotional needs.
