Special Educational Needs and Disabilities

At Whitehill Community Academy we are a fully inclusive school and every child, whatever their individual abilities or needs, is equally valued and welcome here. We are committed to identifying barriers to learning and helping children to overcome them. We offer a broad and balanced curriculum and have high expectations for all children. The achievements, attitudes and wellbeing of all our children matter and we celebrate the achievements of everyone.
