Reinwood Infant & Nursery School

SEND Provision

Welcome to our SEND page. Our Special Educational Needs Coordinator in school is Ms Hoult 

Ms Hoult works closely with all adults in school in order to ensure that our children with additional needs are happy in school and making progress.

Reinwood Infant and Nursery School works alongside specialist outreach support providers where required, including Early Years SEN, Complex Communication and Interaction Team, SaLT, Specialist Speech and Language, Primary Pupil Referral Service and Occupational Therapists etc.

Developing emotional resilience underpins many aspects of school life. Therefore, we have Nurture practitioners in school, one of which is our Learning Mentor and she works with small groups and individuals. Our Learning Mentor assists class teachers to ensure that all our children have full access to the curriculum. She also helps to deliver specialised and targeted play activities to keep children focused and on target at play times and lunchtimes.
