Special Educational Needs & Disabilities

At Haughton St Giles Primary Academy we recognise that everyone is unique and each of us has our own individual needs. All who work and are associated with the Academy believe that all children have an equal right to a full and rounded education which will enable them to achieve their full potential. If you have any question regarding Special Educational Needs & Disabilities (SEND) please contact Mrs Linda Alliband our Special Educational Needs & Disabilities Coordinator (SENDCO).

Staffordshire SEND Local Offer

Staffordshire’s Local Offer aims to provide information on what services you can expect from local agencies including education, health and social care. Staffordshire’s Local Offer can be found via the link below:
