West Row Academy
Our school is located in the village of West Row just outside Mildenhall, where community lies at the heart. The school has a special standing within the village's history which is promoted through our curriculum, ethos and values.
Our school caters for children between the ages of 4 and 11 years old and has much on offer for all who attend. Our grounds are beautiful. As well as a large playground and exceptional playing field, we have a thoughtfully designed learning environment that engages children in their learning.
Team West Row work hard to support every child to develop a love of learning through achievement no matter their starting point. We engage and motivate children to learn through a variety of approaches and opportunities. We also value the importance of 'free play' to ensure children have the time and space to consolidate their learning and social skills. A range of after school activities provide opportunities to try new things and follow interests. We want them to develop a love of learning, to feel passionate about discovering new things and to have real ownership of the outcomes of their learning.
We have high ambitions for all of our pupils and aim to provide an inspirational, challenging and supportive environment where children can excel, no matter what their age, need or background. We implement the PiXL Primary Edge to support this. This is a programme of attributes and skills to develop key life skills we all need in order to be successful at home, primary school and secondary school. We call this programme LORIC (Leadership, Organisation, Resilience, Initiative, Communication).

Support for people with disabilities
- Experience of including people with special educational needs and disabilities
At West Row Academy we welcome everybody into community. We believe that every child should be provided with the opportunity to achieve their full potential. Every child in our school has the opportunity to engage fully in school life and all children, regardless of their level of need, are given the same opportunities.
Every student at West Row Academy will follow the same curriculum, with Quality First Teaching designed to allow all learners to access it. However, some children may require extra support to allow them to achieve their potential, and this is where our special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) support is offered. SEND can affect a child or young person’s ability to learn. It can affect their:
- behaviour or ability to socialise, for example they struggle to make friends;
- reading and writing, for example because they have dyslexia;
- ability to understand things;
- concentration levels, for example because they have ADHD;
- physical ability.
External Agency Support:
A child may have been identified by their class teacher and SENDCo as needing some extra specialist support in school from a professional outside the school. This could be from Local Authority central services such as:
- County Inclusive Support Service (CISS)
- Educational Psychologists (EPs)
Other outside agencies and health professionals such as: Speech and Language Therapy Service (SALT); Occupational Therapy (OT); Physiotherapy and the School Nurse.
All additional provision is overseen by the school’s SENDCo and is designed and implemented by class teachers, supported by our teaching assistants. As with individual targets, the most important point is this: additional provision depends on the needs of the child.
For details of planning, assessment and reporting of your child’s progress, please see our SEND and Assessment Policies.
