What is a SENCO

SENCO stands for Special Educational Needs and Disability Coordinator. Some schools use other names such as 'Inclusion Manager'.
Every school should have one.
They are responsible for overseeing all pupils’ special educational needs.
They give advice to class teachers about strategies or interventions they could use to help a child progress better, or any reasonable adjustments that should be made to ensure a child’s SEN or disability is supported.
They will request support from other professionals outside of school if necessary.
Any additional support that your child receives should be recorded and reviewed regularly by the class teacher and SENCO.
