Suspension/Exclusion arrangements

Internal Suspensions

Suspension is when a pupil is excluded from their normal day-to-day activities. The child must work away from their class for a fixed amount of time. This may be in a different classroom or in an office with a TA or a member of SLT.
A Suspension may be used in response to a one off behaviour, such as an aggressive outburst or may be a result of a culmination of behaviours as outlined in the graduated response above. Only a member of the Senior Leadership Team may suspend a child. This will be communicated to Parents.
As a result of a suspension, additional support may be put in place in order to help the child avoid their behaviour escalating to a point where a fixed term exclusion is necessary (examples: behaviour plan, behaviour chart to address specific behaviours causing a problem; support from an additional adult etc) Internal suspension is a formal process but not a legal exclusion.

External Suspensions

Whilst every effort will be made to keep children in school and cater for their needs, external suspensions will be considered where needed:
听 听 听 听 鈥� In response to a serious breach, or persistent breaches of the school鈥檚 behaviour framework; and where allowing the pupil to remain in school would seriously harm the education or welfare of the pupils or others in school.
The following actions would lead to immediate external suspension:
  • Stabbing another child or adult with an object used as a weapon
  • Unprovoked physical attack on a child or an adult that leads to serious harm of the victim
  • When the school has taken persistent and comprehensive action to address the child鈥檚 needs that day and the child is completely unresponsive leading to violence towards others and/or serious disruption of learning for other children in the school.
When establishing the facts, the Principal will use the civil standard of proof i.e. on the balance of probabilities it is more likely than not that the fact is true. Account will be taken of all contributing factors.

Permanent Exclusions

If a child receives more than 45 periods of exclusion in a year (15 a term) permanent exclusion will be considered.
The school follows all the guidance set out in the 鈥楨xclusions from Maintained Schools, Academies and Pupil referral units in England鈥� updated by the DFE in September 2017. Therefore, children with SEN, will not be discriminated against, harassed or victimised because of: sex; race; disability; religion or belief or sexual orientation. The school will comply with their statutory duties in relation to SEN when administering the exclusion process, including having regard to the SEND Code of Practice.

Special Education Needs (SEND)

What are Special Educational Needs听and/ or Disabilities?听

Usually called SEND, this means that a child has needs that are different from or additional to the majority of children of their age, in order to achieve their full potential.听This could be for a number of reasons and听here at 麻豆国产AV Gardens, we听support these needs in a variety of ways, based on a child鈥檚 individual needs.听听

What听is听a听Special Educational Needs and/ or听Disability?听

Under the 鈥楨quality Act 2010鈥� a disability is defined as a physical or mental impairment that has a 鈥榮ubstantial鈥� and 鈥榣ong-term鈥� negative effect on your ability to do normal daily activities.听听

At 麻豆国产AV Gardens School, we consider the individual needs of each child and work together听with Parents/听Carers听and the child听to provide听the right support, to the best of our ability.鈥� This could be for a short period, or for longer. Not all children with SEN are disabled, and not all disabled children have SEN.听We follow the guidance in the SEND Code of Practice (2015), to听ensure听we听are doing听all that we can to meet the needs of our pupils.听

How do we support our pupils with Special Educational Needs听and/ or Disabilities?听

Additional听information about the way we identify and support our pupils can be found in the SEND Policy and听Information report.鈥� These documents set out to help听Parents/听Carers听to understand what we do听to support our SEND children and how this is implemented each day, including听the kind of support that we are able to provide.听
