The budget allocation is agreed between our school and the Local Authority at the beginning of each financial year. Detail of how this money is used to support children and young people with SEND is shown below. This is monitored each term by the Governing Body.
Full details about the way in which funding is allocated to schools for special educational needs provision can be found here:
At St Godric’s Catholic Primary School, our notional SEN budget amounts to £32,700.
This is used to support children and young people with SEND by provided appropriate additional support and resources needed to enable them to access learning.
The school funding formula is generated to include financial provision to specifically support a pupil’s individual special needs, this is called SEN notional funding.
This funding is prioritised to tailor-make learning to ensure small steps of progress are continually made by all SEND learners.
At St. Godric’s Primary school, for those pupils with high needs, Costed Provision Maps are created with detailed evidence of supporting resources provided in school. This builds a portfolio of the progress each child makes, and additional funding and financial support can be applied for from the Local Authority.
Detailed assessments and provision maps target tracking, and regular progress meetings ensure that all learners achieve and make progress at St. Godric‘s Primary School.
Parents of children with SEND may meet with the SENCO to discuss any costed provision concerns they may have.
If a child has complex special educational needs, we could also receive additional funding from the Local Authority to meet the agreed outcomes.
If you would like to discuss your SEND requirements in detail please contact the school to arrange an appointment.
