At West Cornforth Primary School we have experience of supporting children and young people with a wide range of need including:
- Mild learning difficulties
- Speech, language and communication needs
- Physical needs (Spina Bifida)
- Social, emotional and mental health needs
- Cognition and learning needs
- ADHD – ASD
The school provides data on the levels and types of need to the Local Authority. This is collected through the school census.
