At Al-Hikmah Girls School we understand that most students will at various stages in their learning require additional support, some more than others. When a child comes through our doors, our aim always is to ensure that students’ individual needs are always met and we will follow the national code of practice for Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) where necessary. We will do this effectively by ensuring the following;

• High standards and expectations of every child.

• A child-centred approach to support and intervention.

• Thorough communication with all stakeholders, especially the child and their parents.

• Clear and precise identification of learning barriers.

• Evidence-based intervention.

Once identified a specific learning barrier of a child, Al-Hikmah understands that a multi-agency approach ensures the required specialist support is effectively deployed for the child in need. By always taking consideration of the child’s voice and their opinion, our strong leadership team works closely with other members of staff to get the very best out of students who face any particular barrier to their learning. If you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to discuss our provisions of support available for your child with the Headteacher, please email headteacher@alhikmahschool.org.
