At Hartford Junior School we are fully committed to offering an inclusive environment to ensure progress for all our pupils, whatever their needs or abilities.
Our SENDCo is Miss Charlotte Deaves. She can be contacted via the school office or on cdeaves@hartfordjuniorschool.org (please note her working days are Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays).
The Code of Practice for supporting children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities [SEND] has changed significantly. One of the expectations it has introduced is that schools should report annually to parents how they identify, support and monitor the progress of children at the school with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities.
Our latest SEND Information Report details the specific provision we can offer your child. This is a working document and will be regularly updated.

Inclusive Provision
At Hartford Junior School, we have ‘The Nest’ for children whom the school has identified as needing extra support with their social, emotional and mental health [SEMH]. Children are offered a bespoke package when attending this group based on staff observations, assessments and communication with parents/carers.
Our Family Inclusion Officer, Mrs Jen Crabb works from this base and can signpost families to a wealth of support. Please contact the school office to make an appointment with her.
Mrs Jen Crabb is ELSA trained.
ELSA is bespoke therapeutic support [Emotional Literacy Support Assistant] which is designed to support children’s wellbeing and development.
