The SEND Ranges

How education needs are assessed

At Hadrian, we use Local Authority guidance called the 'SEND Ranges', which describe the needs children and young people may have, and the support and provision they may need.

The SEND Ranges

The Ranges describe:

• the needs of children and young people with SEND, and how these needs affect their learning
• the support and provision the child / young person might need at each Range

The Ranges are used to make sure that every child is treated with equality and fairness.

They are used by all schools / settings, including specialist schools and academies.
