All teachers at The Chantry School endeavour to make sure that young people with SEND get the support they need – this means that they do everything they can to meet each young person’s needs through quality first teaching.
The school will also ensure that young people with SEND engage in the activities of the school alongside pupils who do not have SEND. Heads of Year and the SENCo will monitor academic progress as well as emotional well-being and participation in the daily life of the school.
The school will inform parents/carers when they are making special educational provision for a pupil and review the provision termly. The passport process provides pupils and parents/carers with the opportunity to attend a termly meeting with the SENCo (or an appropriate member of staff). The purpose of this meeting is to review the provisions in place, look at new strategies and set targets together for the new term. Due to the number of reviews scheduled, unfortunately timings cannot always be rescheduled, however a questionnaire is sent out to collect the views of parents/carers that are unable to attend.

Worcester Children First – Children with Disabilities Register
What is the register?
All Local Authorities have a statutory responsibility to maintain a register of children and young people with disabilities who live in their area.
The CWD register is an information database designed to collate the contact details of all disabled children and young people within Worcestershire. The register is voluntary, and information provided cannot be verified.
What we will use the information for?
By registering, families can be kept up to date on service and support within Worcestershire, email addresses obtained via the online form will be used to communicate news and updates with those parent/carers and young people who gave consent to be contacted.
Additionally, the Register is used for statistical information and also helps to keep families involved in the development of new services. It will help us as a Local Authority make better decisions when we are planning and developing services for all families and children.
Why we want people to sign up
Families signed up to the register will receive monthly news and updates from WCF, WCC and partner agencies specifically around SEN/D. This gives us an opportunity to communicate with families, involve them in workshops or focus groups we have planned and get their feedback through surveys. Better communication and involvement of our families and children and young people will strengthen our relationships with them.
