At King Charles Primary School, we put the child at the centre of everything we do. We embrace the fact that every child is different and, therefore, the educational, social and emotional needs of every child is different. In our school, pupils will be provided with high quality teaching adapted to suit the diverse needs of all learners. We are an inclusive school and offer a range of provisions to support children with additional needs to help them reach their full potential, leaving us well prepared for their next stage in education and beyond.

The majority of our children with special educational needs, are taught within their classrooms through adaptive, high-quality teaching and additional adult support and interventions. There are a small number of children, who respond best by being in a small teaching group following a developmentally matched curriculum. 

We have two groups set up to support these children: 

Stepping Stones Group for children in EYFS and KS1 with communication, interaction and learning differences. 

Sonic Group for children in KS2 with learning differences. 

Both of these groups are working significantly below age-related expectations. Their timetable is organised so they access their base classrooms for some of their lessons, for social times and for special events. 

Stepping Stones Group Staff:

Miss V Bench (Assistant SENDCo/ Teacher)
Mrs E Price (TA)
Miss J Butler (TA) 

Miss N Cooper (TA)

Sonic Group Staff: 

Miss A Rolph (Inclusion Lead/ Teacher) 

Mrs H Coley (Teacher - PT) 

Mrs L Ledsam (TA)
