Special Educational Needs

The SENCO at Morpeth School is Ms Heather Birtwistle. Parents of pupils with SEN are welcome to contact her if they have a concern or question. Email: hbirtwistle@morpeth.towerhamlets.sch.uk.


Our SEN team is committed to meeting the needs of all young people and to providing a wide range of opportunities for all members of our school community.

We aim to:

  • Create an inclusive learning space
  • Improve our young people’s life chances.
  • Nurture successful learners, confident individuals, effective contributors and responsible citizens.
  • Develop skills so that our young people can think for themselves, make sound judgements, challenge, enquire and find solutions.
  • Promote genuine partnerships with parents.
  • Promote equality and equity of opportunity.
  • Develop skills for learning, life and work.
