Identification of Children with SEND

Early Identification: In the autumn term that children enter EYFS, we administer Language/Speech Link screening; following identified needs, provision is put in place and may include individual or small group support followed by referral to services. Children are identified through discussions with parents/carers, observations and professional discussions.

When a child is identified with SEND and receiving interventions additional to or different from the usual adapted curriculum and Quality First Teaching, they will be placed on SEND Support. Support follows the four‑part Assess, Plan, Do, Review (APDR) cycle - the graduated approach (Suffolk: graduated response).
