At St Vincent's Catholic Primary School we have a designated provision for children with an Education and Health Care Plan (EHCP) for communication and interaction needs. Our provision is an 8 place Key Stage 2 class for children aged 7 to 11 years old. 

Children are taught in a caring, nurturing environment where each child is supported to reach their full potential. The children follow the National Curriculum which is personalised to support the development of life skills, communication skills and independence.

Places in the designated provision are funded separately from the mainstream budget to ensure that we can meet the needs of the children effectively. Places are allocated by the Local Authority and follow a submission to a panel of experts and discussions with parents.  

We have high staff ratios within each class and typically there is one teacher and two teaching assistants in each class.
