King James I Academy will close at 2:45pm on the 26th May for half term. Students are expected to attend in full uniform as normal.
We are currently experiencing technical issues with timetables on ClassCharts, we hope to get this resolved quickly.
External Agencies and Partnerships
At King James I Academy, we benefit from good working relationships with a wide range of people who provide services to children with SEND and their families. This can be of particular support when a child is demonstrating further cause for concern or their learning need is more complex and persistent. Links with external agencies are vital to ensure that we provide the highest levels of support for our students with SEND. The external specialists may:
Support the child and their family directly
Act in an advisory capacity
Extend expertise and training to school staff
Provide additional assessment
Suggest if statutory assessment is advisable
Consult with all parties involved with the child
