What is the Local Offer?

It provides information and support available for families with children and young people ages 0-25 years with special educational needs and/or disabilities.

Wakefield Early Support, Advice,Information and Liaison (WESAIL) provides a free, confidential and impartial service – which means we do not take sides and try to ensure everyone is given opportunities to express their views and feel listened to.

WESAIL

The aim of the WESAIL service is to support children, young people, their parents, carers and families by providing information to navigate systems and processes so that they can play an active role in decision making about matters relating to their or their children’s health, education, social care to support and empower them in meeting their child’s needs and promoting self-advocacy.

WESAIL is also responsible for updating the Local Offer and engaging with children, young people, families and stakeholders in its ongoing development and review. The aim of the local Offer is to help people easily find information about the services, activities and support available in the local area for children and young people with Special Educational Needs and /or Disabilities and their families.

Grove Lea Primary Contribution to the Local Offer with Wakefield Local Authority

At Grove Lea Primary we provide teaching and learning which enables all children to gain access to a broad, balanced and appropriately differentiated curriculum. We strongly believe in the role of Quality First Teaching and Curriculum Entitlement for all children.

Our aim is to ensure all children are supported in order that they may work confidently towards reaching their full potential. The Principles of the SEND Code of Practice 2014 set out the following guidance:

• A child with special educational needs should have their educational needs met
• The views of the child should be sought and taken into account during any decision making
• The early identification of children’s needs and intervention to be put into place to support them
• A greater choice and control for young people and parent’s support
• Collaboration between Education Health and Social Care services to provide support
• High quality provision to meet the needs of children with SEND
• Become confident young children with a growing ability to communicate their own views and ready to make the transition into compulsory education
• To become confident individuals living fulfilling lives

At Grove Lea we pay close regard to the three key principles of inclusive education:

• Setting suitable learning challenges
• Responding to pupils’ diverse learning needs
• Overcoming potential barriers to learning and assessment for individuals and groups of pupils
• Grove Lea Primary School is an inclusive school and may offer the following range of provision to support children with SEND.
