Special Educational Needs (SEN) at Holy Trinity School

This section includes two important documents which specify how Holy Trinity School supports children who may have a learning difficulty which calls for special educational provision.

The Holy Trinity SEN Policy is a statutory document that is reviewed annually. This one conforms to the most up to date SEN Code of Practice released by the Government. A link to the SEN Code of Practice can also be found below.

The Holy Trinity SEND Information Report outlines the way in which the school identifies children who need extra support and the way in which the support is delivered through the curriculum. It answers a range of questions that parents may have.

• Sefton's Local Offer The Local Offer provides clear and accessible information about the provision Sefton Council expects to be available locally for our children and young people from 0 to 25 who have special educational needs and/or disability (SEND). The Local Offer helps you to understand what services you can expect from a range of local agencies, including your statutory entitlements, eligibility and referral criteria. The Local Offer also makes clear what is available from early years settings, schools (including Academies and Free Schools), colleges and other services including those from health and social care.
