SEN


At 麻豆传媒, our Inclusion faculty is a faculty dedicated to providing support to students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), as well as those with English as an Additional Language (EAL).

Within Inclusion we are able to cater for pupils with a wide variety of learning needs being mindful to keep in line with the

Please click below for the Special Education Needs & Disability (SEND) Local Offer:

Students with SEND may refer to difficulties such as communication and interaction, cognition and learning, behavioural and emotional difficulties, specific/general learning or medical/physical. Students are given access to all areas of the curriculum whether it is through differentiated work or specialist support from experienced specialist teachers or outside agencies. The Inclusion Faculty works with parents/carers/teachers to ensure that students realise that they have the potential to achieve in the best possible learning environment appropriate to the student’s needs and ability.

We have a large faculty of experienced Intervention Assistants (Teaching Assistants) that are fully aware on how to support and identify students with SEND, deliver literacy and numeracy programmes as well as some in-class support.

We believe that the most important factor in ensuring academic and personal progress is the delivery of BEST, which fits in with the statutory guidance given in the SEND Code of Practice around Quality First Teaching. We practice a ‘Plan, Assess, Do, Review’ approach which enables us to identify students who require academic or social, emotional and well-being support and interventions. We monitor and review the progress of all students with SEND in collaboration with all teaching staff, parents/carers and also external agencies. This is done throughout the year through data analysis, reports, parent teacher consultations and during annual reviews for those with Education, Health and Care Plans/Statements and the most vulnerable students on the SEN register.

We are committed to working with all families and the community to support our students in order for them to be the best that they can be. If a student with SEND is not making their expected progress we offer targeted interventions as a faculty. These are offered additionally to what is available at a whole school level.

  • Lexia (Phonics programme to develop reading ability)
  • Speech and Language Therapy
  • Support from teaching assistants.
  • Love Literacy- Literacy Intervention
  • Maths Base- Numeracy Intervention
  • Lunchtime homework support
  • The Zone- Lunchtime Social Interaction club
  • Counselling
  • 1:1 and group mentoring

In the EAL department we support students with integration into the school and culture through the teaching of English. Students are taught in small groups and sometimes on a one to one basis depending on the age and needs of each individual.
The department is staffed with 3 fully qualified Languages Teachers with a vast range of teaching experiences.

Groups are taught according to the language needs they have rather than according to year group. This allows the teaching to be tailored to the needs of the students and allows for quicker progress. We adopt a multi modal approach to teaching English using computers, text books, video, audio, paired and group work. The focus is on developing speaking, listening and reading to a functional level in order for students to begin accessing the school curriculum.

The EAL department is developing pathways of learning and working closely with the SENCo to form a better system of identifying those students with EAL who may have SEND.

As part of the options process at KS4 the Inclusion Faculty offer

-The ASDAN Award Bronze/Silver/Gold to students with opportunities to participate in various modules involving life/social skills.

– Language Skills and Study Support to students with English as an Additional Language leading to a Certificate in Entry Level English.

Historic NASA STEM Trip to Florida

A First for Redbridge: 麻豆传媒 Students Embark on Historic NASA STEM Adventure in Orlando, Florida Twenty-seven students become the first young people from the London Borough of Redbridge to experience NASA’s Kennedy Space Centre and an unforgettable programme of STEM learning in Florida For the first time in the history of the London Borough of Redbridge, a group of students has had the extraordinary opportunity to visit NASA’s Kennedy Space Centre and experience the world of space exploration, engineering and innovation first-hand. Twenty-seven students from Years 10–13 at 麻豆传媒 recently returned from a once-in-a-lifetime educational journey to Orlando, Florida, creating a landmark moment for STEM education in the local community. This was far more than a school trip. It was an opportunity for students to stand where history has been made, explore the technology behind humanity’s greatest achievements and see how the science they study in classrooms is transforming the world beyond Earth. Travelling with Norse Atlantic Airways, students spent six days and five nights in Florida, staying at the Rosen Inn at Pointe Orlando. Throughout the trip, students developed independence, confidence and resilience while representing 麻豆传媒 and Redbridge with pride. Reaching New Heights at NASA’s Kennedy Space Centre The highlight of the journey was an inspirational visit to NASA’s Kennedy Space Centre, one of the world’s most iconic centres for space exploration. Students walked among real spacecraft and rockets, explored interactive exhibits, experienced space simulations and discovered the incredible stories behind NASA’s missions. They learned about the Apollo programme, the Space Shuttle era, astronaut training, the International Space Station and the future of human exploration beyond Earth. A particularly inspiring moment was learning about the role of the Hubble Space Telescope and how space technology continues to expand humanity’s understanding of the universe. Students saw how physics, mathematics and engineering combine to overcome extraordinary challenges and make space exploration possible. For many students, seeing genuine spacecraft and the engineering behind these missions transformed ideas from their science lessons into something real and tangible. Inspiring the Next Generation of Scientists and Engineers The students also experienced the power of innovation through two days at Disney Parks, where they took part in science and technology workshops exploring the engineering, creativity and problem-solving behind some of the world’s most advanced entertainment experiences. Students discovered that behind every attraction lies a combination of physics, computer science, mathematics, design and engineering. They gained a deeper understanding of how STEM subjects influence industries far beyond traditional scientific careers. At Wonderworks, students continued their exploration of science through interactive exhibits and challenges, investigating concepts including forces, motion, electricity and human perception. The trip also challenged students personally through activities such as iFLY Indoor Skydiving, where they experienced the science of flight and aerodynamics while building confidence and resilience by stepping outside their comfort zones. A Journey of Discovery and Personal Growth Beyond the incredible educational experiences, the trip helped students develop valuable life skills. They worked together, supported one another, adapted to new environments and demonstrated maturity throughout the journey. Students returned home with a greater appreciation of the importance of curiosity, collaboration and ambition. Many reflected on how seeing science applied in the real world had changed the way they viewed their future possibilities. Head of Science at 麻豆传媒, Mrs Sevdie Ali, said: "This was a truly historic opportunity for our students and a very proud moment for 麻豆传媒 and the Redbridge community. This was not just a visit to NASA—it was an experience that allowed our students to see what is possible when curiosity, determination and scientific ambition come together." "Watching our students stand next to spacecraft, explore world-leading innovation and realise that they too can contribute to future discoveries was incredibly inspiring. We want every student to believe that opportunities like this are within their reach." The Orlando STEM Adventure reflects 麻豆传媒’s commitment to providing exceptional opportunities that extend learning beyond the classroom. By creating access to world-class educational experiences, the school continues to raise aspirations and inspire young people to pursue futures in science, technology, engineering and beyond. The 27 students have returned to Redbridge with unforgettable memories, greater confidence and a renewed passion for discovery. Their journey marks an exciting milestone—not only for 麻豆传媒, but for the wider Redbridge community—showing that the next generation of scientists, engineers and explorers can come from anywhere.
