Overview of SEND provision and support at Hinchingbrooke School:
Basecamp
Basecamp is the name given to an area of Lower School which centralises the services needed to support learning for those with additional needs. In addition, a cohort of year 7 and 8 students receive parts of their academic learning here. This input from a specialist teacher is part of our supported provision and includes a high level of specialist Teaching Assistant support. This adaptation allows a differentiated and accessible approach to the teaching of maths and English. These students join their peers for other areas of the curriculum and these lessons are accessed through the mainstream school.
The Haven‘
The Haven’ (named by the students) serves multiple purposes, from recreation away from the hustle and bustle of the main school, to the provision of facilities for individual study and intervention work. With facilities for our wheelchair users and a sensory room, we are well prepared to support a wide range of special and additional needs.
