Special Educational Needs (SEN)

We are committed to the principle that every student has individual needs and an entitlement to the full curriculum. We believe that every tutor is a tutor of every child/young person including those with SEN and disabilities. We are fully inclusive in our provision:

  • Social background
  • Ability
  • Ethnicity
  • Religion
  • Gender
  • Sexuality

We advocate that all students should have access to the best education in order to prepare them for their futures. Therefore we are continually endeavour to improve the levels of attainment and progress for all students in order for them to achieve their potential.

Our SEN policy, report and Accessibility Plans are available to download below. Information regarding Staffordshire County Council’s Local Offer is available on their website.

SEN Local Offer for Staffordshire County Council

Students with disabilities

We always happy to welcome students with disabilities. Potential students are encouraged to contact us when they apply. Before your child takes up their place at the Academy we will discuss their individual needs with them and make all reasonable attempts to provide any specialist support and/or facilities they may require. We will continue to meet with them at regular intervals to ensure their needs are being met.

Medical support

The Medical Room is located within Administration next to Reception which allows students to be easily monitored by the Medical Officer, and when appropriate, enables parents to easily collect them. The Medical Officer Miss Grant works in Partnership with the Academy to create an environment that promotes healthy living, as well as responding to the needs of individual students. The facilities of the Medical Room mean that first aid and emergency care and treatment can be provided as necessary.

Students can also access other services such as confidential health advice and support for disabilities or long term conditions which require medication administration. Students can drop in and see the Medical Officer at any time between the hours of 0900 – 15:00 Mon – Fri to discuss any concerns or problems they may be having, whether it be with exam stress or any other medical issue.

Financial Support

Details of the Academy Student Support Scheme are shown in the Policy below, including free school meals and discretionary bursary.

To make an application, please email the completed Application Form to [email protected] (or post to BursaryDepartment, Landau Forte Sixth Form, Ashby Road, Tamworth B79 8AA), ensuring that all supporting documentation is sent with each claim.  A confidential record of all applications received will be maintained, together with  with the Principal’s decisions regarding eligibility, which will be communicated to the Finance Team.

The Finance Team will then account for monies awarded via the Student Support Scheme or Most Vulnerable categories and report this to the YPLA according to the protocol of their portal for MI returns. All applications will be dealt with in the strictest confidence.
