Mainstream Inclusion Calderdale Guidance is intended to:
Outline the provision and support that mainstream settings should be able to provide for all children and young people (including those with SEND) attending an educational setting in Calderdale within their notional inclusion budget.
Help schools and settings consider what extra support might be relevant for children and young people who are not progressing at the rate they would expect.
Help parents understand what schools will be doing.
In Calderdale, we take a needs-led approach to support. This means focusing on the unique profile of an individual’s strengths, skills, and needs, rather than relying on a formal diagnosis.
