Special Educational Needs and Disabilities
Supporting Every Child at Marsh Gibbon CE School
At Marsh Gibbon, our Christian vision is "Succeeding Together – fostering a love of learning within a nurturing Christian community to bring out the best in everyone." Guided by our values of love, compassion, respect, and honesty, we believe that all children, regardless of background or ability, are capable of flourishing and reaching their full potential under our care.
We are an inclusive school committed to meeting the needs of every child. Working closely with parents, carers, pupils, and when appropriate, external agencies, we follow the SEND Code of Practice to ensure tailored support that helps each child thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
Windows, Mirrors, and Doors Analogy
- Windows: We open windows to understanding, helping children and adults see the world from different perspectives. This fosters empathy, patience, and acceptance, ensuring that every child feels supported on their unique journey.
- Mirrors: Our school reflects the diverse experiences, strengths, and needs of every child. In doing so, we help children see themselves as valued, capable, and loved—mirroring God’s love for each of us.·
- Doors: Pupil support and resources act as doors to new opportunities—removing barriers and unlocking potential so that all children can access a rich, caring, and faith-filled learning environment.
Our Commitment
Mrs. Emma Osborne, our dedicated SENDCo, works closely with teachers and external agencies to find the best routes for each child's success—whether through additional learning support, extra resources, or simply providing a listening ear. She has built strong relationships with local support services, ensuring that every child receives the right help at the right time.
We believe that every child is a precious gift from God, created to flourish in a caring community rooted in faith. Our approach is designed to nurture each child's spiritual, emotional, and academic growth—helping them become the best they can be, in line with our Christian values.
