SEND & Inclusion

At Stimpson Avenue Academy we have a graduated approach to SEND, ensuring early identification of needs and a continuum of support for children in order to enable them to make progress.

Please view the documents below for more information about our Special Educational Needs provision.

Our SENCo is Carol Hamblett and she can be contacted by emailing carol.hamblett@stimpson.emat.uk
