Meet the Team
We are the Inclusion Team
Harriet Phillips - Assistant Head and Inclusion Leader (SENCo)
As SENCo, I work closely with our wonderful teachers and Learning Assistants to support children on the Special Educational Needs/Disabilities (SEND) register. I also liaise with other professionals including Speech and Language Therapists and Advisory Teachers from Oxfordshire County Council to ensure the needs of all our pupils are being met.
I am committed to working closely with parents and carers to support our children. I run a termly SEND Parent Forum with representatives from each class in school with an aim of developing our SEND offer and am happy to meet with parents to discuss their child's needs.
If you have any questions about how we support children with SEND at Longford Park, you are welcome to email me via the inclusion email address: inclusionteam@longfordparkschool.org
