Supporting Children with Special Educational Needs

Some children may be diagnosed when they are born with special educational needs whilst others may not be diagnosed until later in childhood. The earlier we can ensure all children’s individual needs are fully understood the better chance we have of meeting them. We work closely with parents and other professionals in order to ensure correct assessment and support is completed. Our SENCO is Hannah Clark.  Please contact 01274 722070 if you require any further information.

Early Support

Early Support is a recognised approach to improve the way that services for disabled children and young people work with families. It provides a standard framework and a set of materials that can be used in many different circumstances, as well as a set of expectations about how services should work together.

Information Report

Physical Friendly Setting

At Abbey Green Nursery School we have demonstrated that we meet the necessary standards
in supporting children and young people (CYP) with additional physical needs.


The Physical and Medical team in Bradford have used the pdnet Standards to
devise a process by which settings can be awarded the status of being
‘Physically Friendly’. Pdnet is a national organisation established to support
professionals who work with CYP with additional physical needs.


Abbey Green Nursery School have worked over the course of 10 months, with support from the
Physical and Medical team and pdnet’s online resources, to audit our current
provision, devise action plans to target areas for development and finally,
ensure that we could demonstrate meeting the pdnet Standards sufficiently
for the award to be given.
