Mrs Caygill is the school’s SENCO and Mrs Dixon is the school's Learning Mentor. Mrs Hill leads the Pastoral and Inclusion Team.

 

At Hopwood Primary School we strive to support all pupils to enable them to achieve their full potential across the curriculum. High quality teaching is vital; however, for some pupils there are occasions when additional support may be needed.  We implement the EEF’s 5-a-day Principles from their research-backed guidance ‘SEND in Mainstream Schools’.  Below is a summary of the strategies we implement:

  1. Explicit instruction – Clear explanations, modelling and frequent checks for understanding
  2. Cognitive and metacognitive strategies – Teaching slide content is reduced and pupils are given the opportunity to rehearse and evaluate their learning periodically
  3. Scaffolding – Pupils are provided with supportive tools or resources to help them to access the task
  4. Flexible grouping – Lessons groupings are flexible based on pupils’ needs
  5. Using technology – Alternative methods of recording are used to support learning and recording in lessons
