Ofsted (2008) said “Pupils enjoy school,…..their behaviour is good….they feel safe and at ease with one another”. We believe in putting our pupils’ needs first by offering a broad curriculum matched to their needs, developing a positive earning environment, and providing many extracurricular activities to extend learning and participation. Our pupils achieve well, make good progress, and are proud to wear the Selborne uniform.
Ethos and values
Staff and governors work very hard to create a
community in which a desire to learn, creativity,
self-respect, and awareness to the needs of others
flourish. We work closely with parents for the benefit of all our
pupils. Selborne is a harmonious place to be, as our children are
thoughtful and caring. We expect them to behave well, support each
other, and to respect different backgrounds and cultures.
Summary of special educational needs policy
Some of our children may require additional support
so that they can fully participate in learning. Such children are
identified at an early stage by our assessment and tracking
systems. Children with special needs are initially assessed by
their teacher who, in consultation with the special needs
co-ordinator, produces a special programme to enable them to access
the curriculum. All children are fully integrated into the life of
the school.
