Specialist Provision
As a school, we want to make sure all our children achieve their best and that those with Special Educational Needs receive the extra support they need in order to do so. As part of the Surrey Local Offer, you'll find below all information on the ways we support our Vision Impaired and SEND children to do just that.
Please contact us if you would like to discuss your child's needs.

Specialist Centre for the Vision Impaired
Our aim is to support children in becoming independent learners.
At St. Stephen’s we include children with a vision impairment in as much class-based learning as possible. We do this by creating vision friendly environments and also by developing children’s skills so that they can become independent learners.
We have excellent resources to enhance learning. We have a wide range of equipment to support access to all areas of the curriculum in Braille or modified print.
Specialist teachers and experienced teaching assistants provide support to help each child acquire the skills to become independent learners. ICT equipment and training is provided to suit each child’s specific needs.
