ACCESS

The school recognises that there are difficulties with access for wheel chair users and people with physical disabilities to the upper floor of the school.   The upper floors of the school provide activities such as baking for Key stage 1, P.E. for all and the exchange of library books for Key stage 1.  Whilst some of these activities can be adapted and brought downstairs, we realise our aim of equal access would only be fulfilled by alterations to the access of upstairs by means of a lift or other aid. Disabled person’s toilet facilities are situated off the main entrance to the Foundation Stage unit.   Ramps to the outside have been fitted and the school has used contrasting colours to make doorways and flooring areas more easily seen.  All adjustments to date have been made in line with the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 access initiative and completed in 2005.

 

The school is committed to equal opportunities and inclusion and will therefore take every possible measure to ensure that pupils with disabilities are warmly welcomed into the school and their needs met through Special Educational Needs funding or through the school budget.
