Inspired to Grow and Flourish

​

At Welsh House Farm Community School and Resource Base, we believe that every child has the right to feel valued, included and successful. We are committed to creating a nurturing, ambitious and inclusive environment where all pupils can flourish academically, socially and emotionally.

​

Our school is proud to host a specialist Cognition and Learning Resource Base for twelve pupils with Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs). Alongside our mainstream provision, this enables us to provide highly personalised support for children with a wide range of additional needs whilst maintaining a strong focus on inclusion, independence and meaningful participation in school life.

​

Together, we strive to create a community where every child feels safe, respected and empowered to grow, achieve and flourish.

​

We celebrate the unique strengths, interests and aspirations of every learner and are committed to removing barriers that may prevent children from achieving their full potential.

​

We recognise that children learn in different ways and may require additional support at different stages of their education. Through early identification, strong partnerships with families and personalised support, we ensure that children receive the right help at the right time.

​

Our inclusive practice is informed by:

• The SEND Code of Practice (2015)

• The Equality Act (2010)

• Birmingham's Ordinarily Available Guidance (OAG)

• Birmingham's SEND Local Offer

• Evidence-informed approaches to inclusive education and adaptive teaching

 

The Ordinarily Available Guidance (OAG) sets out the inclusive provision that should be available for all children and young people in Birmingham schools and settings and supports schools in creating learning environments where every pupil can succeed.

​

As a fully inclusive school, we are committed to:

• High expectations and aspirations for every learner

• Inclusion for everyone, every day

• Strong partnerships with families and professionals

• Relationship-based and restorative practice

• Early identification and intervention

• Celebrating diversity and individual strengths

• Promoting positive wellbeing, belonging and achievement for all

 

We work closely with parents, carers, Birmingham Local Authority, SENAR and a range of specialist services to ensure that support is coordinated, effective and centred around the needs of the child.
