Inclusion at New Monument

At New Monument Primary, inclusion is at the heart of everything we do. We believe that every child is unique and deserves to feel valued, respected and a genuine sense of belonging within our school community.

Our SEND Vision

“Every pupil with SEND should experience high expectations, belonging, appropriate support and genuine opportunities to learn, achieve and become increasingly independent.”

This vision was developed collaboratively by our staff and reflects our shared commitment to ensuring that every child feels supported, included and empowered to succeed.

We believe that all teachers are teachers of pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). Through high-quality teaching, early identification of need and strong partnerships with families, we work to remove barriers to learning and provide the support children need to thrive.

We recognise that parents and carers are experts in their children and key partners in their educational journey. By building positive relationships founded on trust, open communication and shared goals, we work together to ensure every child receives the support, encouragement and opportunities they need to achieve their potential.

We listen to our pupils, celebrate their strengths and value their views. By understanding their experiences, interests and aspirations, we help children to develop confidence, independence and a positive sense of self.

At New Monument, inclusion is not simply a policy; it is part of who we are. Together, we strive to create a community where every child feels safe, welcomed and able to flourish.

Every learner can thrive, aspire and achieve.
