SEN
The BDMAT SEND Vision
We are ‘ONE’.
‘Together, you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of that body’
1 Corinthians 12
Our Five Principles of ‘Belonging’ drive and empower all we do to ensure every SEND
pupil in our trust feels a true sense of belonging and in doing so achieves their very best:
- Dignity for all
- All empowered to enact change
- Together we thrive
- Great destinations, different journeys
- Celebrating every success
