SEND
Special Educational Needs and Disabilities
Herschel Grammar has a whole school approach to SEND provision. As stated in the SEN Code of Practice 2015, every teacher has a responsibility to provide appropriate support and differentiation to ensure all students and all needs are catered for to make progress possible for all students.
Students with additional needs will:
- have the greatest possible access to a broad and balanced education;
- be positively encouraged to participate in the life and work of the school to the best of their abilities, whatever their needs;
- be given help and guidance to prepare them for adulthood, including independent living and employment.
Additional Needs Coordinator
Our Additional Needs Coordinator is Ms M Nolan. She can be contacted via email mno@herschel.slough.sch.uk or phone number 01753 520950.

- Explain the roles and responsibilities of everyone involved in providing for students with particular individual needs.
