SEND

Netherbrook Primary School is proud to share that we now have a dedicated SEN Team supporting pupils from ages 2–11.

The team consists of ;

At Netherbrook, we are committed to being an inclusive community. We work with children with a broad range of special educational needs to help them achieve their fullest potential and prepare for the future.

Our SEN Team identifies and monitors children on the SEND Register to ensure that all needs are fully met. The team works closely with class teachers and a range of external agencies to plan appropriate provision. Parents and carers are kept fully informed of their child’s progress, and regular review meetings are held throughout the year.

If parents or carers would like to get in touch with the SEN Team, please email: sendco@netherbrook.dudley.sch.uk
