Our SENDCo is Mrs Morton

If any of our parents/carers have any queries about SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities), or if you require further information about our SEND provision, we encourage you to make an appointment to meet with Mrs Morton via the School Office.

We are committed to providing an inclusive, nurturing environment where every learner, regardless of their individual needs, can thrive. Our SENDCo, alongside our entire staff team, is deeply passionate about ensuring that learners with additional needs receive the highest standard of support, tailored to their unique abilities.

Hyrstmount Junior School is one of the local schools which form the BBEST Partnership of Schools. All schools in the BBEST Partnership have a similar approach to meeting the needs of children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).

We are supported by Kirklees Local Authority to ensure that all learners, regardless of their specific needs, make the best possible progress in school. All schools in the Partnership aim to be as inclusive as possible, so that the needs of our children with SEND can be met in a mainstream setting, when this is appropriate and where families want this to happen.

You can view our SEND policy and our Accessibility Plan on our policies page.
