SEND

SEND is an acronym which stands for Special Educational Needs and Disability.

We believe in offering all our pupils a fully inclusive learning experience. We are committed to providing educational opportunities which will help all our pupils reach their full potential.

If you have any questions about your child’s special educational needs or disability please contact our SENCo, Mrs Amy Schofield (senco@graveley.herts.sch.uk) or via the school office (admin@graveley.herts.sch.uk).

DSPL2

Graveley School is part of DSPL2 (Designating Specialist Provision Locally), which covers Stevenage and the surrounding villages. Click here to visit their website, for a wide range of information and guidance on the support available locally.

The Hertfordshire Local Offer

The Local Offer lets parents and young people know what special educational needs and disabilities services are available in Hertfordshire, and who can access them. Click here to access their website.

Families First is the term used in Hertfordshire for services that work together to support families who need extra help. These are also known as early help services.

We all experience difficulties at some point. Families First can help you find early help and information to prevent issues from getting worse.

If you need more help than your usual support network – for example your health visitor, school, doctor or family centre – Families First can work with you and your family to create a package of support.

Looked After and Previously Looked After Children

Mrs Hand is the ‘Designated Teacher’ for those children either currently being or having previously been looked after by the local authority. For information and resources to support your child’s education please visit the Hertfordshire Virtual School website.
