Inclusion

At Yapton C. of E. Primary School we recognise that all pupils are entitled to a quality of provision that will enable them to achieve their potential. We aim to provide an environment in which all our children can flourish.

We believe in positive intervention, removing barriers to learning, having high aspirations to raise levels of achievement. We work in partnership with other professionals and agencies in order to provide a positive educational experience for all our pupils including those with additional needs.
