Special Education Needs Survey

SEN Statement

Abingdon House School opened in January 2005 as a major new initiative in education providing a unique education for children in need of educational support.

Our class teachers are highly trained, have specialist qualifications and are effective. Our on-site multi-disciplinary team provides valuable speech and language therapy, occupational therapy and physiotherapy. Specialist literacy, maths and visual perceptual training along with music therapy are provided. We have a close association with Lyn Fry Associates for educational psychology support. Each child has a termly Individual Education Plan with SMART targets. This is reviewed at the end of term.

Our environment is based on understanding your child's individual needs, nurturing your child's academic and social development and caring for your child's wellbeing.

Abingdon House understands the importance of discipline and boundaries. The school fosters a sense of pride and belonging that encourages your child to progress and achieve at school.
