Camelford Primary School
Services and organisations that have the Local Offer flash have filled out inclusion information, meaning that they meet the needs of people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)

Our school is very welcoming.  Staff and pupils are kind, helpful and friendly. 

Our classrooms are named after Cornish beaches; Daymer, Harlyn, Summerleaze, Trevone, Crackington, Lundy, Watergate, Port Isaac, Fistral, Tintagel and Bossiney.  We display our learning on the walls, making them bright, colourful and helpful.

Our cook is friendly and makes delicious lunches.  The food choices are vegetarian, meat or jacket potato.  The desserts are scrumptious and fruit salad is always available.

Playtimes are filled with fun.  Each class has a sheltered area of their own, which has a bench for quiet time. There is a wide variety of equipment that we can use at lunchtimes.  Markings on the playground floor includes alphabet and number caterpillars, chess and draught squares and a number square.

Classes take it in turns to play football. If it is dry, children get to play on the field.  In wet weather, we have indoor activities in the classrooms.

We have a number of different assemblies; praise, singing and class.

We hope you love our school as much as we do!

How we make our service inclusive

Our service is accessible to all children and their families.

Staff SEND experience

Across the school there are a number of teachers and support staff that have specialist training to support children with SEND and their families.  There are:

  • SENDCo that has recently come out of class to support teachers, children and their families.  Our SENDCo has 8 years of classroom experience which has seen them teach across the age ranges and work with children that have had a range of needs.
  • Thrive practitioners plus all staff have had up to date Thrive training and its principles and support strategies are implemented throughout the school.
  • Pastoral Support Worker
  • Highly qualified ARB teacher and support staff
  • Dyslexia Champion
  • Autism Champion
  • Trained Speech and Language TAs
  • TAs that are trained in RWI, Fun Fit, Fresh Start, Speed Up and more effective intervention programmes 

All staff are kept up to date with training that can support and enhance their practice within their roles across the school.

How our service supports providers / schools / colleges

we have close working relations with outside agencies locally and across Cornwall.

Support at key transition points

We work closely with Sir James Smith's and other local Secondary Schools.  Visits to the schools, opportunities to meet key staff are made and adapted to meet the needs of children and their families.

Other local or national support

Please see our website for our Local Offer.

Resolving disagreements, mediation and making complaints

We are a very supportive school and we thrive to provide a high level of care.  We will go above and beyond to support and provide what we can for the children and their families.  In the event of a disagreement/complaint, where we are unable to satisfy all parties, our Head of Governors is the next connect point.
