ROSELYN HOUSE SCHOOL
3 Year Accessibility Plan
Introduction
This plan was drawn up in accordance with the planning duty in the disability Discrimination Act 1995, as amended by the SEN and Disability Act 2001 (SENDA).
Disability is defined by the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 (DDA)
"A person has a disability if they have a physical or mental impairment that has a substantial and long-term adverse effect on his or her ability to carry out normal day to day activities".
Since September 2002, there are three key duties towards disabled students under part 4 of the DDA:
- Not to treat disabled students less favourably for a reason related to their disability.
- To make reasonable adjustments for disabled students, so that they are not at a substantial disadvantage.
- To plan to increase access to education for disabled students.
The plan sets out the proposals of Roselyn House School to increase access to education for disabled students in the three areas required by the planning duties in the DDA:
- Increasing the extent to which disabled students can participate in the school
Curriculum.
- Improving the environment of the school to increase the extent to which disabled students can take advantage of education and associated services.
- Improving the delivery to disabled students of information which is provided in writing for students who are not disabled.
It is a requirement that Roselyn House School accessibility plan is resourced, implemented, reviewed and revised as necessary. Attached are a set of action plans showing how the school has and will address the priorities identified in this plan.
THE PURPOSE AND DIRECTION OF THE SCHOOL’S PLAN: VISION AND VALUES
The Special Educational Needs Code of Practice sets out guidance on policies and procedures aimed at ‘enabling students with special educational needs to reach their full potential. To be included fully in their school communities and make a successful transition into adulthood.’
All students at Roselyn House School have an EHCP for Social, Emotional and Mental Health. It is the aim of the school:
- To provide a positive, supportive environment.
- To develop learning programmes which are relevant to our young people within a National Curriculum Framework.
- To develop independence in our young people.
- To foster coping strategies, especially in readiness for post 16.
- To support students with an empathetic and experienced staff group.
- To provide vocational and community experiences for our young people.
- To be forward thinking and creative.
- To be a child centred provision.
- To make the young person’s learning experience fun.
- To provide opportunities for young people to realise their talents and to succeed.
- To encourage young people to work together and respect other people’s skills.
- To provide accreditation including: GCSE, Entry Level Certificate, Level 12, Functional Skills, Unit Award Scheme, BTEC, NVQ and Duke of Edinburgh.
By meeting these aims, Roselyn House School and everyone in it may fulfil our mission statement:
|
Roselyn House School recognises and values parent’s carer’s knowledge of their child’s disability and its effect on their ability to carry out normal activities, and respects the parent carer’s and child’s right to confidentiality. Through a child’s EHCP review and during the initial non prejudice visit to the school, information is identified regarding any possible disabilities a child parent carer may have.
It is intended that this accessibility plan be a whole school working document and to be an aid to remind staff to remove barriers to learning for disabled students. It should help to create a sense of ownership towards the plan and prove Roselyn House School wider commitment to equal opportunities. (See Single Equality Policy)
The ‘index for inclusion’ states:
‘Inclusion is seen to involve the identification and minimising of barriers to learning and participation and the maximising of resources to support learning participation.’
(Booth and Ainscow 2000).
In Lancashire County Council’s ‘The Inclusion Continuum- A Policy for Special Educational Needs,’ it suggests that:
‘...inclusion involves changing cultures, policies and practices so that they can respond readily to diversity among students.’
Inclusion works alongside equal opportunities and therefore should involve all students whatever their ability, age, gender, ethnicity and background. Inclusion and participation are essential to human dignity. At Roselyn House School , we believe in the school fitting around the needs of the child; adapting systems and structures in order to meet individual needs and fully involving the disabled or disaffected young person. We aim to achieve this by looking at:
- School curriculum, teaching and learning, leadership and management.
- Attitudes and values.
- Language, images and role models.
- Buildings.
- Organisation.
This will be included in the three areas required by the planning duties in the DDA as previously described in the introduction.
PRODUCING A THREE-YEAR ACCESSIBILITY PLAN
The stages in producing an Accessibility Plan
In producing Roselyn House School three-year Accessibility Plan, there was an initial audit and review of the three areas of the requirements of the DDA. Future, ongoing development of the plan will continue to refer to data on students’ individual needs and consultation with students, parents carers, staff, placing authorities and outside agencies, including disabled people organisations.
Following the access audit, a list of actions has developed and goals and targets set with time scales. These are reflected in action plans covering the three areas of this plan.
Once staff are employed at Roselyn House School , the management will consult with all staff (teaching and non-teaching staff) so that they are involved and committed to the plan.
Roselyn House School has a statutory duty to implement the plan and allocate adequate resources to it.
The plan will be kept under review and revised as necessary. Evaluation needs to show if the goals are being achieved with the allocated time scales.
This Accessibility Plan forms part of the School’s Improvement Plan and is part of a wider policy framework.
The plan is readily available and monitored as part of Ofsted’s inspection process.
AREA 1: INCREASING THE EXTENT TO WHICH DISABLED STUDENTS CAN PARTICIPATE IN THE CURRICULUM.
This is to ensure disabled students have access to a full, broad and balanced curriculum. Curriculum areas should be considered at a whole school level, as many barriers to accessing the curriculum will be similar for several groups of young people and it is helpful to take a strategic approach to removing these barriers.
1:1 CURRICULUM, CLASSROOM AND LEARNING SUPPORT AUDIT REVIEW
- To educate all students within small group (not more than 8) situations and to fulfil requirements of National Curriculum in so far as possible with each child.
- To operate in Groups following Health and Safety Guidance and Risk Assessment as a result of the Covid 19 Pandemic.
- To implement a curriculum based on aspects of the National Curriculum in which the individual needs of each student are met through a variation of class based, group and individual strategies, involving a wide range of teaching skills, perspectives and resources. In addition, a student may be a peer mentor who may assist with learning support. This may take place within the school main building within allocated Groups and classes.
- Each child will be assessed on admission to school for Literacy, Numeracy, Behaviour, Emotional Literacy and Learning Styles and individual, educational and behavioural objectives planned, profiled, initiated and recorded in the IEBP. This IEBP will be reviewed and revised at least once termly through whole staff discussion. From this it may be evident that some students require additional 1:1 tutoring and support in order to facilitate their learning. Students may also be given a CAT4 test measuring Verbal Reasoning, Quantitative Reasoning, Non-verbal Reasoning and Spatial Ability and Boxall Profiling.
- Schemes of Work are differentiated for students at all levels which in turn will be supported by lesson plans giving accurate information as to work covered, concepts taught and achieved, tasks completed not completed and comments on educational behavioural performance for each student.
- Each child’s progress within each subject area will be profiled and recorded in line with National Curriculum guidelines and Roselyn House School 1-4 grading system, measuring progress and attitude to learning thus, ensuring high expectations are met for all students.
- Lessons will be planned by a subject specialist Teacher and in larger groups delivered by a Teacher Instructor and supported by a Learning Support Assistant.
- Some lessons sessions and interventions will take place 1:1.
- Some lessons will take place in the Community Outdoors.
- There will be particular emphasis on the development of literacy, numeracy and problem-solving skills through a range of enrichment and specific programmes for the development of particular skills, as well as structured learning programmes for students experiencing Moderate Learning Difficulties and further Specific Learning Difficulties. This will be outlined in the student’s Learning Support Plan.
- Each young person is assigned a Mentor who will meet regularly in order to follow a programme of pastoral support and development designed to meet the needs of the individual, including discussion of their IEBP.
- External agencies partners are utilised, e.g. Speech and Language Specialists, Educational Psychologists, RNID, RNIB, Play therapy and therapy through music.
- School is linked with Hope Flowers School in Bethlehem where joint activities take place with students and shared practice with staff who share similar experiences though very differing circumstances.

September 2022 |
The TT at RHS has been divided into am and pm sessions where for each part of the day, one half of the Bubble spends their time in the outdoors. This is a protective measure in order to keep staff and students safer in the current pandemic. This has meant we now hire out outdoor facilities and complete lessons in the community. This applies to KS4/5 students where they are TT to take walks with staff and have relaxation zones. A get up and move system has been adopted across both sites to help motivate students and give them time away from their desks.
A new music room has been purpose built in the school grounds.
The grassed area to the side of the nurture classroom has also been opened up for play.
