Our Inclusive School
Our SENDCo is Kylie McManus. She can be contacted on: admin@emmanuel.camden.sch.uk
Emmanuel is an inclusive school where we actively seek to remove the barriers to learning and participation that can hinder or exclude individual pupils, or groups of pupils. We welcome and celebrate diversity.
The school’s excellent inclusive practices were recognised when Emmanuel received the Camden Award for Inclusion from Camden Local Educational Authority in June 2013.
We support children through one to one, small group work and interventions led by teaching assistants, our learning mentor and teachers. We work collaboratively with external professionals, such as Speech and Language Therapists and Educational Psychologists, to ensure that children all make good progress. All our children are carefully tracked and monitored through their everyday learning and their progress is reviewed every term.
