Welcome to Stacey Primary's ALN Page. Below you will find information and links to videos to support you in finding out about ALN at Stacey.
Stacey Primary School is an inclusive school where all staff are committed to the success of each and every pupil.
All children are valued, respected and welcomed to our school, whatever their additional educational needs may be. We support children’s learning and aim to ensure they are fully included in all school activities.
The Welsh Government is changing the way that children and young people with special educational needs (SEN) will be supported.
The Additional Learning Needs and Educational Tribunal (Wales) Act 2018 makes provision for a new statutory for supporting children and young people with additional learning needs (ALN) from the age of 0-25.
The ALN system aims to transform the expectations, experiences and outcomes for children and young people with ALN placing learners' views at the heart of the process.
As a school we ensure the needs of our children are met through high quality teaching and learning provision. Our Universal Provision includes:
whole class teaching
effective differentiation
collaborative group work
individual and small group interventions
appropriate and reasonable adjustments to enable access to the school environment, curriculum and facilities.
If a child is not making expected progress in their learning from their baseline point we will gather observations, use assessment data and seek to work in collaboration with outside agencies / professionals to identify any additional learning needs. A wide range of evidence will be gathered over time, including:
assessment tools, frameworks and questionnaires
standardised assessments
observational data
formative assessments of day to day learning
monitoring progress over time
assessments from other agencies e.g., Paediatrician
Discussions with the child's parents using the Personal Centred Planning approach (PCP)
From this,the decision may be made that it would be in the best interest for the child to receive a Individual Development Plan (IDP)
This would outline the child's Additional Learning Need (ALN) and Additional Learning Provision (ALP)
Here are some very helpful documents and videos to give you further insight into ALN and what we do as a school to support your child through their ALN journey.
