Finchley Catholic High School aims to embrace the needs of all students; we are committed to ensuring equality of education and opportunity for all our students.
We have a whole school approach to Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) and aim to develop a culture of inclusion and diversity in which all are able to participate fully in the life of the school. The Special Educational Needs and Disabilities policy provides full details of the way that the school identifies, supports and monitors the needs of pupils with special educational needs.

Ofsted and the Care Quality Commission (CQC) are visiting Barnet to inspect the local arrangements for children and young people with special education needs and disabilities (SEND).
What is the Local Area SEND Inspection in Barnet?
