Disability and Accessibility

We are committed to providing a fully accessible environment which values and includes all pupils, staff, parents and visitors regardless of their education, physical, sensory, social, spiritual and emotional needs. We are committed to challenging negative attitudes about disability and accessibility and to developing a culture of awareness, tolerance and inclusion.

What we do to prevent pupils with disabilities from being treated less favourably:

Our School is committed to anti-discriminatory practice to promote equality of opportunity, prevent disabled pupils from being treated less favourably and valuing diversity for all children and families.

St Anne’s has ramped access to the main entrance and to all classrooms. We have a disabled toilet and a selection of specialist writing and reading resources for the children to use. We have a disabled parking space in the school car park.

St Anne’s staff aim to promote the involvement of all pupils with disabilities in all classroom activities. All staff are following LA and school policies and procedures to support pupils with disabilities and ensure that classrooms have a clear and accessible layout and are communication friendly environments.

We aim to:

  • Offer a rich, stimulating and accessible curriculum and environment in which all our pupils can grow and in which all contributions are valued and accepted.
  • Celebrate the achievements of all our children and families, regardless of ethnicity, gender, religion or disability.
  • Establish close liaison with our families and regularly consult with children, parents and Pupil Voice groups to ensure that the needs of our pupils are being met.
  • To ensure that pupils with a disability are able to be fully involved in school life and the curriculum and are offered the opportunity to participate in activities both inside and outside the classroom by making reasonable adjustments.
  • To ensure that children with SEN have full access to the curriculum and are offered the opportunity to participate in activities both inside and outside the classroom by making reasonable adjustments.

The facilities to assist access are outlined in our Accessibility Plan

St Anne’s Accessibility Plan 2020 -2023

The Accessibility Plan contains relevant actions to:

  • Improve access to the physical environment of the school, adding specialist facilities as necessary.
  • Increase access to the curriculum for pupils with a disability. This covers reasonable adjustments within teaching and learning, specialist aids and equipment and the wider curriculum of the school, such as after school clubs, visits etc,
  • Improve the provision of information to pupils, staff, parents and visitors with disabilities.  All information will be made available in various formats within a reasonable time frame.

Accessibility Action Plan 2020-2023

The Accessibility Action Plan details the short, medium and long term actions, and the arrangements for reviewing and making adjustments on an annual basis. A new Accessibility Plan should be produced every three years.
