Menu Welcome At Shavington Academy, we observe the Special Educational Needs Code of Practice (2015) and the Equality Act (2010) Our vision for children with special educational needs and disabilities is the same as for all children and young people – that they achieve well in their early years, at school and in college, and lead happy and fulfilled lives (Special Education Needs Code of Practice, 2015) (Click the buttons to read more about each topic) All children have the ability to learn and should be equally valued whether or not they have SEND. Inclusion is most likely to be achieved when their diversity is recognised and regarded positively. All staff are responsible for inclusion. Children are entitled to receive a broad, balanced and relevant curriculum. We are aware our responsibility to offer appropriate advice, support and resources to enable pupils to succeed in the mainstream curriculum. All children and their parents/carers are entitled to be treated with respect and have their views taken into account.
