Beaumont Primary School

SEND

We are an inclusive school and aim to support all children regardless of any specific education need or disability. Our school fully implements the Special Educational Needs and Disabilities Code of Practice 2015.

Through a range of support from within our own staff team and using a wide range of experts from external agencies we aim to ensure that all children achieve their maximum potential.

We actively encourage parents to work in partnership with school to ensure that both the child and parents are central in the decision-making process in order to ensure our pupils have the best possible life chances.

If you have any concerns over any special educational need or disability which your child may have, we encourage you to speak to your child’s class teacher or the school SENDCO, Mrs Catherine Donohue. Email: cdonohue@beaumont.croydon.sch.uk
