SEND Information
At Urmston Grammar School, we are committed to ensuring that every student, regardless of their characteristics, background or level of need, is supported to thrive, achieve their potential and develop the personal qualities that will equip them for successful adult lives. Our tradition of courtesy, mutual respect and high expectations captured in our motto “Manners Makyth Man”—underpins an inclusive culture where all learners are valued, challenged and supported.
We believe that excellence is achievable for every student. The school provides high quality teaching, strong pastoral care and a learning environment that blends long standing tradition with modern innovation enable all students, including those with SEND, to access an ambitious curriculum and make meaningful progress. Staff expertise ensures that each individual is nurtured, encouraged to pursue their personal best and empowered to become an independent, confident learner.
Our school values of Pride, Participation and Empathy shape the character of our community and guide our approach to inclusion. We want every student to take Pride in who they are and what they can achieve; to Participate fully in school life, enrichment and wider opportunities; and to show Empathy towards others, contributing to a culture built on tolerance, respect and understanding.
Through this shared vision, we ensure that all students; particularly those with SEND are prepared not only for academic success but for adulthood, equipped with the knowledge, skills, confidence and character needed to lead fulfilled, responsible and resilient lives.
Our SEND department play a vital part in the education of our students with special educational needs. Should you have any questions please contact our SENCO, Mrs D Smith, via dsmith@urmstongrammar.org.uk
