Special Educational Needs and Disability

SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities)

At Northfield we believe that all children are special, therefore all children have special needs.

This page aims to provide some information about SEND at Northfield.

Our SENCO is Miss V Jones and our Deputy SENCO is Miss E Tuck. They are available to contact through the school office or via email (senco@northfield.derbyshire.sch.uk).
