Lindley CE Infant School

Places at our school are allocated through the standard admissions process. We are experienced in providing a high quality of education for children with a wide range of special educational needs. We work with parents and early years providers in the local area (including nurseries and pre-schools) to support positive transitions into our school for children with additional needs.

This school is wheelchair accessible.

Lindley CE Infant School is an inclusive school where the learning and teaching, achievements, attitudes and well-being of every young person matter. At our school, we take into account the wide range of abilities, aptitudes, interests and needs of the children in our planning, teaching and assessment. We are committed to a “whole school” approach to special educational needs and disabilies (SEND), believing that all staff have an important part to play to ensure that all pupils, regardless of their specific needs, make the best possible progress within school.

Every effort is made to ensure that pupils identified as having SEND are fully involved in the life of the school. We have a child and family centred approach and pride ourselves in the positive relationships we build with our families. Termly 'Parent Space' groups are held to for parents of children with SEND, providing opportunities for parents to access support from school, external professionals and groups, and from each other.

School opening times are 8am - 4pm. The school day starts at 8.45am and finishes at 3.25pm

If a parent of a child with SEND has a specific complaint then the first point of contact is the class teacher. If the matter is not resolved then the parent can ask to speak with the Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator (SENCo). If the matter is still not resolved then parents may speak to the Head Teacher.
