ALN
Ysgol Bro Dinefwr has an ethos of inclusion. The Additional Learning Needs department therefore is committed to ensuring that all learners reach their potential and gain the skills needed to be active participants in their own education and of the wider community.
The department offers different layers of support with some pupils accessing their education in Dosbarth Barcud which is a more specialised provision based in Marlais. Many pupils receive in-class support through our teaching assistants and others access specific support sessions with key staff. There is an emphasis on developing independence in all our learners, at whatever stage is appropriate. Taking a person-centred approach means there is a high level of communication between the school, parents and the learners to ensure the best possible level of support.
The ALN Department also has a sensory room which is accessible to mainstream learners, Barcud and Cothi Bach. The space provides multi-sensory resources to support a learners’ sensory needs to enable them to engage with learning. It is an area that provides a sense of calm and comfort which promotes self-regulation and improves focus.
The department also works closely with external agencies.
Ysgol Bro Dinefwr has forged strong links with our feeder primary schools. For further information, please contact Mrs Lisa Thomas lisa.thomas@brodinefwr.org.uk
