At The Piggott School we welcome students with special educational needs and disabilities as part of our community and ensure that all students are fully included so that they can engage in a broad and balanced curriculum.

In 2023 Ofsted said ‘Leaders have ensured that teachers’ approaches to delivering the curriculum are highly effective for all pupils, especially those with SEND’ and ‘As a result, pupils achieve highly here, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities.’

Equally, in our SIAMS inspection of 2023 it was also noted that ‘It (the school) is inclusive of all and provides well for pupils with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) and those considered vulnerable.’

Some of our students will need additional support to ensure access to the whole curriculum. To achieve this we work in close partnership with parents and carers, valuing their views and contributions and keeping them fully involved in their child’s education. Students are also involved, where possible, in decision making about their support. We believe that the effective education of students with SEND can only be achieved through a whole school approach endorsed enthusiastically by all those supporting the child.

The 2023 SIAMS inspection found that ‘Extensive specialist training enhances teachers’ skills in ensuring the needs of pupils with specific needs are appropriately met. This is strengthened by wide-ranging support by highly trained specialist staff in areas such as dyslexia, sensory and physical support or counselling. Such a comprehensive and inclusive approach ensures that pupils with SEND flourish at The Piggott.’
