SEND & Equality

Here at St Mary and St John Catholic Primary School we embrace the fact that every child is unique. The educational needs are different especially for those children with SEND. We strive to provide the best possible support and provision for all our pupils.


Mrs Mitchell is the SENCo in school and will do her best to help you with your concerns. Mrs Mitchell is currently completing the National Award for SENCO Qualification with Edge Hill University and has worked with our children and school families for a number of years.
