Special Education Needs

Our Vision

The Priory Lincoln Academy SEND Department is dedicated to supporting students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities, ensuring they feel valued, confident and equipped to reach their full potential. We are committed to fostering independence resilience and a love for learning which allows every student, regardless of their individual needs, to thrive academically, socially and emotionally. We are driven by our passion for inclusion and excellence, ensuring that each learner is met with wisdom and understanding, tailored support, and the tools to succeed.  Our team works with courage and generosity of spirit, challenging barriers to learning and advocating for the needs of our students with unwavering dedication.  Together we cultivate an environment where every student belongs, and where learning is accessible, engaging and adapted to meet individual strengths and challenges.  Through the partnership between students, parents, teachers and the wider community we are successful in meeting our Academy motto of Achieving Individual Excellence Together.
