SEND Services
There are a variety of support options available at One to ensure students are successful with their learning and can achieve what they desire. For example, we can support with exam access arrangements, individual need adjustments and in and out of class support. The SEND Services team are happy to personalise your support and enable you to get the most out of your time in college.
Please get in contact with the SEND Services Team:
- If you would like to make us aware of any Special Educational Needs.
- If you have any concerns about your transition or the support, you may require at One.
- If you have any documents you would like to pass onto us, such as Education Health and Care Plans (EHCPs), Medical care plans, Diagnosis Reports, proof of exam Access arrangements from High School.

Frequently asked questions
How do I know if I have the support in place?
Please speak with your Personal Progress Tutor or contact the SEND Team directly to confirm the support you have in place and clarify any specific requirements.
What do I do if I need more support when I start?
Your progress at One will be consistently monitored by your teachers and Personal Progress Tutors, if you feel you require more support and this is not picked up by staff, please email the SEND Team to discuss further support available.
I often feel overwhelmed and like to find somewhere quiet, where can I go?
We have many break out quiet spaces around the college. Speak to your Personal Progress Tutor and they can direct you to the nearest space, and will happily book this out for your regular use.
I have an EHCP. How do I know if you have this?
The Local Authority will usually pass this onto us; however, we are always happy to accept copies of this. Please email or get in contact with us to share these documents.
I would like a transition visit, is this possible?
The SEND Team are more than happy to arrange transition visits with you, please email directly and a time/date can be arranged at your convenience.
I have medication to support my additional needs and will need to bring some with me to college. What do I do?
Please keep your medication with you, so you have it to hand. If you cannot hold this yourself or your medication requires cold storage for example, then please speak with your PPT on your first day. Medication would need to be signed in and out by you in the college's secure storage.
What do I do if I need exam access arrangements?
If you think you require access arrangements speak to your Personal Progress Tutor, or your teachers and they will contact the SEND Team who will arrange an assessment for you. Alternatively, please contact examaccessarrangements@easterneducationgroup.ac.uk
