What is the Wolverhampton Local Offer? | Wolverhampton Information Network

 

At Merridale Primary School, we believe that all children have the right to an inclusive education. We ensure all children achieve their potential personally, socially, emotionally, and academically regardless of their gender, ethnicity, social background, religion, physical ability and educational need.

 

Our SEND information report outlines the ways in which we ensure support for our students who are identified as having a Special Educational Need or Disability (SEND) for them to reach their full potential and be ready to succeed in the future. As a school, we constantly review our  provision to ensure we are continually meeting the needs of all children in our care, along with the requirements of the national curriculum.

 

Our SEND Policy, Accessibility Plan and Policy, Equality policy (plus Equality Context and Objectives) and a range of other policies that maybe applicable to children with additional needs, are all available on our Policies page on our website: School Policies | Merridale Primary
