Creating SEND Resource Provision at Romiley Primary School

Overview

Stockport Council wants to know your views on a proposal to establish a specialist resource provision (SRP) at Romiley Primary School from September 2023 for pupils with learning and cognition, or social, emotional and mental health needs. Stockport Council is comitted to improving the SEND offer and ensuring families have the option to allow their child's needs to be met locally. 

Currently, children requiring specialist provision are having to travel a significant distance across the borough to have their needs met in a specialist setting. Projections indicate that the number of children requiring specialist provision will increase at a level of 2.85% each year until 2027. 

If agreed, this proposal will expand Stockport's current SEND provision; ensuring that suitable, high quality, local provision is available for all pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities.
