Support for your child at Northenden Community School 

At Northenden Community School we believe excellent teaching gives children the life chances they deserve. We work hard to provide a caring, stimulating and inclusive environment to ensure that every child reaches their full potential. We recognise that you know your child best and you may feel that they need additional help or support for some or all of their time at our school.  

Not all children will need extra support with their learning but the progress of all children at Northenden Community School is monitored closely to ensure support  is provided where necessary. Support can be given for a variety of reasons. This booklet is to inform you of the types of support available for your child at Northenden. It will help you understand who can help and how this support can be accessed. 

Manchester Local Offer helps children and young people with SEND up to the age of 25 and their parents/carers in the Manchester City Council area understand what services and support they can expect locally. This includes their statutory entitlements which are required by law.
