Please be aware that Surrey will not be offering TRAC High COIN placements for the academic year starting September 2023. Please contact Surrey SEND teams for further information 

 

The Learning Support Department exists:

  • To ensure that all students, whether they have additional needs or not, have access to a broad and balanced curriculum which is differentiated to meet their individual needs
  • To identify, assess and make provision for any student who may have special needs or a disability
  • To help every student realise their full potential, and optimise their self-esteem and wellbeing
  • To enable all staff to play a part in identifying students with SEND and take responsibility for recognising and addressing their individual needs
  • To encourage an effective partnership with parents and carers offering a joint learning approach at home and at school
  • To encourage and support students to participate in decision-making through their educational career
  • To offer a graduated response to needs in accordance with the SEND Code of Practice

 

The Learning Support team work closely with students, teachers and parents to support learning and review progress. Parents can make appointments to discuss their child’s progress with the SEND team and any other school’s advisory services we work with to support students with additional needs. At Three Rivers Academy we aim to improve students’ confidence and self-belief and by doing so increase their ability to learn independently and build on their skills for life, developing resilient young people who strive to be the most successful version of themselves.

Students are carefully assessed and monitored during their transition from primary school to secondary school. We liaise closely with staff in our primary feeder schools to ensure the transition process is successful for students with additional needs. Whole school screening assists us with ensuring any access arrangements can be applied for to support those students who meet criteria.

  • The Partnership Educational Psychologist
  • Specialist Teachers for Inclusive Practice (STIPS: Includes the Language and Learning & the Behaviour Support service)
