SEND

Our SENDCO is Miss Wilson. She is a long-standing member of the school team and knows our families well.

Please get in touch if you would like to speak to her with any questions or concerns.

She is at Steeton Primary School every Monday and Tuesday.

We recently had an inspection of SEND from Bradford Local Authority and were identified as a beacon of good practice in the local area. We are really pleased that the work we do to ensure the progress of all our children is recognised.
