This charter was created through discussions with staff at the Communication Twilight Series 2018. All staff acknowledge and agree that:

• Being able to communicate is the most important skill we need in life
• Every pupil has a voice and a right to express their thoughts, needs and feelings
• It is everyone’s responsibility to use the school’s Total Communication Approach
• Total Communication supports both receptive and expressive language
• Communication can take many forms and is both verbal and non-verbal
• Pupils will be given the means, reasons and opportunities to communicate in everyday life
