Slough Borough Council

Special Educational Needs (SEN)

From the earliest years, we want every learner in Slough to have the chance to develop:

• high self-esteem
• respect for others
• positive and socially responsible behaviour

This will let them play a full, happy and active role in society. For children and young people with disabilities this means:

• our education providers have a responsibility to make sure everyone in Slough can take part fully in any learning opportunity
• there should be a range of provision to meet ongoing needs
• there should be a range of provision to meet temporary/short term needs
• they should receive a high quality education that meets their needs in their local communities through varied and flexible provision

To make sure this happens we have an accessibility strategy which can be found below. We also have a summar of this strategy.

We also have a multi agency protocols for transition from childhood to adulthood which guides us in our work.
