SEND

At the Rodillian MAT, we recognise the need to provide an inclusive, supportive and positive learning environment. The skill, enthusiasm and supportive attitude of the class teacher is the key to effective learning of all students, in particular those with SEND who need additional, targeted teacher input to meet their individual needs; improve their confidence and self-esteem; and enable them to achieve and maximise their full potential. High quality teaching, differentiated for individual pupils is the first step in responding to pupils who have SEND. Additional intervention and support cannot compensate for a lack of inclusive ‘quality first’ teaching.

The Featherstone Academy has a welcoming, ethical, effective and inclusive school culture. We provide excellent Quality First Teaching and welcome all students that can access a mainstream secondary curriculum.
