Inclusion at Hurst Park

Inclusion refers to children who are identified as having Additional Learning Needs. This may be children with Special Educational Needs, Disabilities, medical needs, those eligible for Pupil Premium, English as an Additional Language, being Gifted and/or Talented, or ‘vulnerable children’ such as Looked After Children, travellers or those from ethnic minorities.

Our inclusive approach to the curriculum at Hurst Park ensures that through regular assessment, close relationships with parents and carers, and constructive communication with other agencies, including Health and Social Care, we can ensure that the needs of all of our pupils are met and equal access to the curriculum is attainable for all.

“All children have a gift inside them. For some it’s just harder to dig that gift out.”

Henry Winkler, Honorary OBE – awarded for becoming to children ‘a role model and an inspiration for overcoming their learning challenges’.

From Early Years to Key Stage 2, our approach is about inclusion, kindness and safeguarding.  

Our LEO Inclusion Film brings to life all that we do as a Trust to ensure that all children are heard, supported, and cared for in the way they need to thrive. 

This includes flexible curriculums, the use of digital tools that allow every child to tailor their learning to their unique needs, and consistent support for parents and carers throughout the year.
