At Littleham, we are committed to providing comprehensive support for pupils with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) to ensure they make significant progress in their learning journey. Our approach is rooted in inclusivity, striving to meet the diverse needs of all pupils within a mainstream environment whenever feasible. We prioritise collaboration with families and value the input of the child, ensuring their voices are heard and respected throughout the support process.
Our SENDCo is Carrie Goodwin. She is available by contacting the school office on 01395 266535 or by email on littlehamsend@thelink.academy

The council is changing the way that young families are supported at Children’s Centres, and is moving towards developing Family Hubs. We are hoping to engage with those who use the services, as well as professionals and community groups, to help influence the changes.
