Inclusion is at the heart of everything we do at All Saints' and we continue to strive to build on and develop the practice we have in place.

We firmly believe that all pupils should be supported to achieve their best so that they may flourish: academically, socially, physically and emotionally.

We fully support our pupils with identified Special Educational Needs or Disabilities (SEND) in line with the SEN Code of Practice and the Special Educational Needs and Disability Regulations 2014.

Our Deputy Inclusion Lead, Mrs Beth Lloyd, plays a central role in strengthening inclusive practice across our schools. She leads on all Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) support across the Matlock and Dales Primary Partnership, working closely with staff, families and external agencies to ensure consistent, high-quality provision for pupils who require additional emotional or behavioural support.

In line with the current SEND Code of Practice, we adopt a graduated approach, which often recognises that children learn in different ways and have different needs.
