We seek to enable every young person in Surrey with special educational needs or disabilities to realise their potential, as we would with any other child or young person. Surrey schools play a vital role in the support available to children and young people from birth to adulthood. Our schools are designed to empower them to achieve their goals through a broad, accessible curriculum aimed at different needs. Every young person is different, of course, and our schools are very aware that young people may not fit neatly within one category of need. They require a mix of support and learning activities and environments, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Putting children first Surrey schools put the needs of the young person first. The support arrangements and personalised learning programmes are specifically designed around them, to give young people with additional needs the very best opportunity to achieve their potential and lead fulfilled and happy lives. Because families know their children best, schools actively encourage parents and carers to be as involved as possible in the life of the school and their young person’s learning programme. I hope you find the information in this booklet useful. If you have any ideas on how it could be improved, we would value your feedback.

Your child does not have to have an assessment for an education, health and care plan (EHCP) to get support from his or her mainstream school. The Government provides funding to schools so that they can provide this level of support from within their core offer. 6 7 8 Introduction to specialist centres and special schools in Surrey Across the county we have a range of special schools and specialist centres which are located within mainstream schools.

  • Surrey Heath Local Plan 2011 – 2028 Site Allocations Background Paper
    Surrey Heath Local Plan 2011 – 2028 Site Allocations Background Paper Urban Green Space Site Survey 2012 1 CONTENTS 1. Introduction 3 2. Methodology 5 3. Findings 7 Appendices 2 1.0 Introduction 1.1 Surrey Heath Borough Council undertook a comprehensive green space survey between 1989 and 1991 as well as carrying out incidental surveys between 1995 and 1998, the results of which informed the designation of Green Spaces within Settlement Areas in the Surrey Heath Local Plans of 1994 and 2000. These designations have subsequently been rolled forward into the adopted Local Plan (2012) as part of the Core Strategy and Development Management Policies DPD. There are a total of 118 rolled forward designations contained within the 2012 policies map. 1.2 The Borough Council is currently preparing its Site Allocations Development Plan Document (Sites DPD) and needs to review whether to take forward the current urban green space designations within the settlement area shown on the Local Plan 2012 Policies Map. This paper constitutes the informative basis of this review using data gathered through desktop and on-site surveying between August and September 2012. It should be noted that Camberley Town Centre is exempt from this review as it is not being considered as part of the Site Allocations LDD. Amendments to urban green space designations in the town centre (consisting of one designation) will be considered through a separate Area Action Plan. 1.3 Surrey Heath contains numerous green spaces within its urban areas, smaller settlements and rural villages. The urban green spaces perform a number of functions: - Formal recreation - Informal recreation - Visual breaks - Habitats for wildlife 1.4 The green spaces also add to the physical and visual attractiveness and quality of settlement areas and are a highly valued asset.

  • Press Release
    press release 6 November 2009 Schools across the South East take on the stock market as they compete in the 7 th annual shares4schools competition 20 schools across the South East are taking part in the 2009/10 competition Budding financiers invest real money in the stock market The 2009/10 Shares4Schools investment competition is now underway, with 70 schools competing nationally to make the biggest profit in just eight months. There are 20 schools across the South East taking part, all hoping to be crowned the most profitable school of its region. Every school started the competition with a real investment pot of £1,500. From now on they must buy or sell at least one investment every month. At the end of the competition schools get to keep any profits they make. The national winner and four regional winners will then be invited to attend a special ‘winners day’ ceremony in London. Jorawar Singh, business studies teacher at Reigate School, comments on how the competition can improve the student’s skills inside and outside the class room. “The competition provides a real day to day business experience which gives an insight into how the external environment affects business performance. Most of the students learning is controlled, however this competition gives the students an opportunity deal within the real world of investing, something which they couldn’t learn in class. It provides opportunities for students to gain the ability to analyse trends in an area where they can actually have an impact.” Explaining the educational benefits of the competition, Ian Benning, Shares4Schools coordinator, said: “Feedback from schools suggests that it is the ‘real’ money element which separates Shares4Schools from fantasy-based competitions.
