At Shrewsbury High School, we know that your child is an individual and each child has different needs. Where possible, all teachers endeavour to meet every pupil’s need within the classroom through excellent teaching and comprehensive departmental support. For many pupils, this is more than sufficient. For those pupils who need more targeted support, we have an experienced Learning Enhancement team.

If a child needs a more complex level of support, both the Junior and Senior School have qualified and experienced Special Educational Needs Co-ordinators (SENDCOs) who can better assist your family with organising the correct pathway for your child’s education. This can be discussed at an initial meeting prior to starting at our school with follow-up meetings planned throughout their time with us.

Communication is very important to us and we endeavour to create a partnership between parents, teaching and support staff, and the individual to ensure success. We pride ourselves on working closely with families and ensuring parents are given opportunities to discuss support plans regarding their child. Success depends on regular communication between home and school.
