Local Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) Information

At British Section SHAPE International School we aim to provide an inclusive education in which all children and young people are encouraged to flourish and achieve their full potential.

Quality first teaching and high-quality universal support is an essential element in this, along with the recognition that some children will require additional or adapted provision to minimise barriers to learning and maximise progress.

Our SENDCO (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities Co-ordinator) is Miss Briers, is contactable through the school office using the contact form at the bottom of the page.

For more information, please read our SEND Offer and local SEND Information Report.

For more detailed information regarding SEND within Defence Children Services, please visit the DCS SEND page.

How will we communicate with you?

The majority of our communication with parent/carers is via BromCom. This platform is used for:

• Messages
• Publishing important documents
• Announcements
• School diary events
• Gaining parental consents
• Publishing Headteacher weekly newsletters

In FS1 and FS2, children’s observations are uploaded to the Famly App which gives parents/carers the opportunity to see their child’s progress. They can reach out to the class teacher directly via this app.

For the remainder of the school we use Famly App for Parents/carers to contact class teachers. If we need to contact a parent/carer immediately, we will contact them via telephone.

Parent/Carers are invited into school to talk about their child(ren)’s progress in Autumn and Spring terms and they receive an annual report at the end of the academic year.

We hold regular parent workshops focusing on different areas of the curriculum. This supports parents in understanding the breadth of the curriculum and enables them to support their child(ren) at home

We offer an open-door policy where parents/carers can access class teachers and/or the Head Teacher at the end of the day.
