Learning Support at Howbury School

At Howbury School, we believe every child has the potential to thrive with the right support. Our Learning Support Program is designed to address each student’s unique needs through individualized guidance, helping them succeed academically, socially, and emotionally.

How We Identify Children Who Need Extra Help

We take a proactive and supportive approach to identifying children who may need additional assistance:

    • Regular Assessments and Observations: Teachers routinely monitor each child’s progress and identify areas where support is needed.
    • Previous School Coordination: We work with your child’s former school to understand their learning history and specific needs.
    • Parent Collaboration: Our open-door policy encourages parents to share observations and discuss their child’s development with us.
    • Screening and Evaluations: Where necessary, we conduct detailed assessments to identify learning challenges or disabilities.

How We Support and Develop Every Child

Once a need is identified, we implement personalized strategies to help every child succeed:

    • Differentiated Teaching: Lessons are tailored to suit individual learning styles and abilities.
    • One-on-One Interventions: Personalized sessions target specific challenges, building skills and confidence.
    • Reading Clinic: We provide specialized support for children struggling with reading or comprehension, helping them improve fluency and enjoyment of reading.

Supporting Children with Special Educational Needs (SEN)

For children with Special Educational Needs, we provide targeted, collaborative support:

    • Individualized Education Plans (IEPs): Customized plans address specific educational or behavioral goals, created with input from the Learning Support Coordinator, School Manager, parents, and external specialists when necessary.
    • Learning Support Coordinator: Our coordinator oversees all SEN-related programs, working closely with teachers to ensure consistent and effective support.
