The SEN Code of Practice is an important guidance document that all schools must follow when making
decisions about identifying, assessing and making provision for children who have SEN. Currently, all
children with SEN are recorded on the school’s SEN register under one of five stages according to the level
of support which they need to help them make progress in school. The new Code, when published by the
Department of Education, will have three stages for schools to record children on the SEN register. These changes are outlined in the attached document. If you have any questions or queries, please speak with your child's class teacher or the Learning Support Co-ordinator, Mrs. McFadden.
