The Governing Body and the Headteacher are committed to providing the appropriate support for children who have additional learning needs and to developing cultures, policies and practices which are fully inclusive.  With the correct provision, strategies and support, the majority of children with ALN can successfully achieve in mainstream education.

We seek to remove barriers to learning and participation.  This means that every child at Radyr Primary School is treated as an individual and as such is entitled to a broad, balanced and differentiated curriculum.  We have in place systems and procedures to identify barriers to learning and participation, and to provide for children throughout the learning spectrum.  As a school we have additional teaching assistants to work with children who need some form of extra support.

We are committed to ensuring that the needs and interests of all our pupils are met and safeguarded.  All staff receive appropriate support and guidance in meeting their duties to their pupils.

We ensure that all teachers are made aware of children’s individual needs and provide additional support where necessary through the use of specialist teachers.

Equality

Radyr Primary School aspires to help every child develop independence and a love of learning and to provide the best possible education in a caring, happy and secure environment, in preparation for adult life.  We seek to foster an environment of mutual respect and support between all staff, pupils, parents and carers and the wider community.
