Learning Support (SEN/D)
Special Educational Need/Disability
Our SENCO Lead is Mrs Mel Childs.
I feel very privileged to be an Associate Vice Principal and the Special Educational Needs Co-ordination (SENCO) at Chichester High School.
I hold a BA(Hons) in Physical Education with Qualified Teacher Status from the University of Chichester, the Post Graduate National Award for Special Educational Needs Co-ordination, and have completed my Masters Degree in Special and Inclusive Education from the same university.
I joined Chichester High School in July 2011 as the school SENCO. I have also been a Head of Year and have been in charge of student welfare.
I feel very privileged to work in an outstanding school and feel very strongly about students receiving an outstanding education and being a valued member of the community regardless of their special educational needs or disability.
