We speak with primary schools about each new student joining The Morley Academy in Year 6 in order to gather as much information as possible.

Most students requiring any additional support will be identified at this stage or sometimes earlier.

The SENDCo holds meetings with Student Performance Leaders and Assistant Principals about any students who have a SEND and may then assess the student.

The SENDCo maintains strong relationships with outside agencies should a child need to assessed for SEND. These agencies will provide examples of good practice for the academy to follow.

Students are assessed on an individual basis to identify any extra help they may need.

If parents are worried that their child may have SEND, the SENDCo is the first point of contact.
