Support SEND

SEND stands for Special Educational Needs and Disabilities

Our SEND is Mrs Atima. She is responsible for ensuring that children with special educational needs are identified and supported. She will liaise with outside agencies and plan interventions and personalised learning plans to enable every child to flourish and learn.

Our whole school approach to how we respond to SEND needs is described here:


Benhall Graduated Response to SEND

If you need to contact Mrs Atima, please use sendco@benhallschool.co.uk.
