SEND - Special Educational Needs and Disabilities Report 2024

In line with Derby City Council’s equal opportunities policy, this school seeks to ensure that all children receive equal opportunities, experiences and respect, regardless of their gender, ability, special educational need or ethnic origin.

Borrow Wood Primary is an inclusive school.  We believe that all children have a right to a broad and balanced curriculum that allows them to reach their potential, whatever their level of need.
