SEND Information

SEN Provision at St. John Bosco

St. John Bosco Catholic Primary School is an inclusive school. We believe that the ethos of our school is to ensure that the special needs provision that we offer should include all pupils who have barriers to learning, whatever their needs are.

We are fortunate to have two trained SENCos at St. John Bosco: Sarah Simner and Louise Pitt.

At St. John Bosco we believe that all pupils:

  • have individual educational needs
  • share the right to a broad and balanced curriculum
  • have the right to have their special educational needs appropriately assessed
  • have individual and personalised targets to meet their educational needs
  • have the right to voice their opinion and express a preference in relation to their educational needs and provision; this may be directly or indirectly through their parents.

You can read details of our special needs provision and local offer below:

The Sunshine and Moonlight Classrooms

The Sunshine Classroom is an additional classroom designed to support children with specific special educational needs. It is a child-friendly learning space with a classroom for children of all ages and a sensory room tailored to SEND needs, providing opportunities for children to relax, unwind, and explore. The sensory room includes sensory lights, tactile resources, sensory toys, and interactive equipment that encourage relaxation, focus, and sensory exploration.

The Moonlight Room provides children with the opportunity to work in a smaller group setting, where they follow the same curriculum as their year group, adapted to meet their individual needs, while benefiting from additional support in a calm environment away from the mainstream classroom when required.
