Local authorities must publish a Local Offer, setting out in one place information about provision they expect to be available across education, health and social care for children and young people in their area who have SEN or who are disabled, including those who do not have Education, Health and Care plans (EHCP). The Local Offer has two key purposes:
- To provide clear comprehension, accessible and up-to-date information about the available provision and how to access it, and
- To make provision more responsive to local needs and aspirations by directly involving disabled children and those with SEN and their parents, and disabled and young people and those with SEN, and service providers in its development and review
Tameside’s local offer can be found here: www.tameside.gov.uk/localoffer
At Buckton Vale we aim to provide a curriculum that is appropriate to the needs and abilities of all our children.
We plan our teaching and learning in such a way that we enable each child to reach for the highest level of personal achievement. We believe that all teachers are teachers of special educational needs.
All schools are expected to have well planned SEND provision and publish their SEND Information Report so that parents and carers can see exactly what the school offers. This supports parents to ensure that they make the right choice for their child.

Should you have any concerns or complaints about the support your child receives for Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), please speak to your class teacher or arrange an appointment with our SENDCo or Headteacher. You can also refer to our Complaints Policy for guidance.
