BS believes that every child is an individual and as such has individual needs. When your child starts school at Braeburn, they will be informally assessed by the class teacher in order for them to understand what level your child is working at; targets for improvement will then be set. If your child needs additional learning support or are very able, Braeburn’s specialist Personalised Learning Department can provide support and challenge materials for your child. This extra provision is regularly monitored and updated. |
