Open the Secondary Schools in Lambeth 2013/14 - Lambeth Council

Children with Special
Educational Needs (SEN)
Children with statements of
Special Educational Needs
By the end of Summer term 2012,
parents/ carers of children resident in
Lambeth, with a statement of
Special Educational Needs, will
receive a letter with a form asking for
secondary school preferences from
Lambeth Special Educational Needs
Team. This correspondence will also
inform them about the process for
transferring to secondary school and
inviting them to notify Lambeth
CYPS of the name of their
preferred school. The Special
Educational Needs Team will then
consult with your preferred
secondary school.
It is therefore important that you
complete this form and return it.

Mainstream schools with
provision for children with SEN
Dunraven SLCN Centre
Dunraven school has additional
provision for students with speech
and language difficulties via its
Speech, Language and
Communication Needs (SLCN)
Centre.
The SLCN Centre can directly support
up to 15 students. Three places are
available in each year group (7–11) for
this level of provision. Students who
qualify for this support will have a
Statement of Special Educational
Needs that identifies their prime area
of difficulty as communication needing
direct SLT support. As students are
part of the inclusive integrated
provision of the school, they must also
be able to cope with the demands,
structures and expectations of
Dunraven's mainstream environment.
They are all taught in mainstream
classes.
