It pays particular attention to the provision made for, and the achievement of, different groups of pupils within a school (Evaluation Inclusion, OFSTED). At Sacred Heart Catholic Primary School we aim to be an educationally inclusive school which means we focus all our efforts on our teaching and learning, achievements, attitudes and well-being of every young person. Effective schools are educationally inclusive schools. This does not mean treating all pupils in the exact same way. Rather it involves taking account of pupils' varied life experiences and needs. At our school we have a dedicated inclusion team; Mrs Palmer - SENCO Mrs Evans - SENCO Support At Sacred Heart Catholic Primary School we welcome the support and involvement of parents and/or carers to maximise children's potential. ### PARENTS & PUPILS - [Our School](https://sacred-heart-catholic-primary-school-2.schudio.com/) - [Key Documents](https://sacred-heart-catholic-primary-school-2.schudio.com/about-us/safeguarding) - [Safeguarding](https://sacred-heart-catholic-primary-school-2.schudio.com/about-us/safeguarding) - [Equality Information and Objectives](https://sacred-heart-catholic-primary-school-2.schudio.com/information/equality-information-and-objectives) - [Policies](https://sacred-heart-catholic-primary-school-2.schudio.com/governance/policies) - [Pupil Premium](https://sacred-heart-catholic-primary-school-2.schudio.com/curriculum/pupil-premium) - PE and Sports premium - [SEND](https://sacred-heart-catholic-primary-school-2.schudio.com/information/send) - [Inclusion Strategy](https://sacred-heart-catholic-primary-school-2.schudio.com/inclusion-strategy) - [News & Events](https://sacred-heart-catholic-primary-school-2.schudio.com/news-events/newsletters) - [Curriculum](https://sacred-heart-catholic-primary-school-2.schudio.com/curriculum/curriculum-and-subject-areas) ![Sacred Heart Catholic Primary School](https://files.schudio.com/sacred-heart-catholic-primary-school-2/images/logo/Bishop_Hogarth_and_Hexham_Logo_new_(1).png) ### Sacred Heart Catholic Primary School Hart Lane Hartlepool TS26 8NL 01429 272684 ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/sacredheartcatholicprimaryschool/) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/sacredheart_hartlepool/) ### Translation ### Office 365 [Sign in to Office 365](https://outlook.office.com/) © Copyright 2025–2026 Sacred Heart Catholic Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://sacred-heart-catholic-primary-school-2.schudio.com/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
