Our SEND and MOTSI Provision
Our SEND Approach: Supporting Every Learner to Thrive
At Reddish Hall School, safeguarding and pupil wellbeing are fundamental to all SEND provision at Reddish Hall School. We follow a therapeutic curriculum designed to meet pupils’ social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) needs alongside their academic progress. Our SEND team works closely with teachers, support staff, clinical team and external professionals to ensure every child can access their learning by identifying and reviewing needs.
Our Leadership team ensures compliance with statutory and ISI requirements.
Identifying & Assessing SEND Needs
Before a pupil joins us, we review the provision in their EHCP to ensure we can meet their needs as part of our universal offer. In many cases, provision is naturally met through our pathways model without needing to withdraw pupils from classroom learning — a key difference from many mainstream settings.
Our Universal Offer
Our therapeutic curriculum, relational approach and personalised support ensure every pupil feels safe, welcomed and able to thrive. Most support is delivered through our whole school approach. However, some pupils may need extra help to fully access their curriculum or manage SEMH needs. When this happens, we provide enhanced and targeted interventions (MOTSI). This can include short-term interventions, therapy referrals or more specialist programmes.
Targeted Support: MOTSI Interventions
MOTSI Referral Process
Reddish Hall staff or the pupil themselves can make a referral if a barrier to learning is identified that cannot be fully met through classroom support.
Interventions We Offer
EHCP Annual Reviews
Every pupil with an EHCP has a statutory annual review to ensure their plan remains accurate and up to date. We follow statutory timelines and processes for all pupils with an EHCP, in accordance with the SEND Code of Practice and Independent School Standards.
