RAISE Network: Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)
RAISE Network, our new name for our SEND department. Our vision for inclusion at St Joseph’s is to ensure that our school welcomes and supports all students regardless of their abilities or challenges. So our RAISE Network is the structure across school for all students who are:
Receiving
Additional
Intervention
Support and
Enrichment.
The RAISE Network at Joseph’s is the community around students who require additional intervention, support and enrichment. It ensures that the school is inclusive and meets the needs of all learners.
St Joseph’s implements a “Think Me” strategy to fully understand and meet individual student’s needs and to remove barriers that restrict them from accessing the curriculum and wider opportunities so that the whole child is prepared for life beyond St Joseph’s holistically not just academically. The RAISE Network is comprised of all governors, staff, students, parents and carers who support our students in “achieving beyond their wildest imagination”. We are unstoppable!
We have a dedicated and passionate team of Teaching Assistants who offer daily support, care and guidance to students but in addition to this, we are moving forward as a school to develop and celebrate our inclusive practice. It is dedicated to raising the following areas of focus:
We have created a Parent/Carer resource to describe and explain the RAISE network, its inclusive practice and provision for students at St Joseph’s and to give the details of the team involved in the RAISE network.
