Tenterfield has an inclusive environment where every individual child is valued. The Tenterfield team are experienced working with children with a variety of needs. We aim to fully support families and help to provide the most appropriate and supportive education to help children to excel whatever their learning needs. We realise that it is an anxious time for parents or carers if your child does not appear to be developing as you expect or in the same way as other children. Staff are here to help and to listen to your concerns so please talk to us and we will do all we can to help.
Holly Brankin, Assistant Head is also our Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCo) and is an accredited SENCO who has had special training to help children who need extra support.
If you have any concerns, queries or ideas please contact Mrs Brankin at the Nursery to make an appointment. Your child’s key person will also be happy to discuss any concerns you may have.
